4 Vessel damage reasons
4 Vessel damage reasons
In the process of operation, various external forces often affect the vessel, combined with the influence of human factors, deformation, and damage will occur. As a result, the vessel lost its normal technical condition; the reasons are:
External forces
Something constantly subjected the vessel to the action of bending stress and torsional stress because it is always in the motion state of rising and falling, swinging, and turning.
Corrosion
Metal corrosion is a natural loss that happens all the time.
Human activity
Because of improper use and management of the vessel, some marine losses and accidents happened. It is physical damage. After repair vessel can be restored to normal condition.
Intangible loss
Due to the progress of science and technology, the technical status of vessels has become obsolete and backward, which needs to be rebuilt, updated, or scrapped.
Due to the above 4 reasons, different degrees of loss and damage occurs during the operation of the vessel, which affects the normal technical status of the vessel, gradually affects the normal operation of the vessel, and poses a threat to the safety of the vessel. Therefore, it is needed to eliminate these defects through repair, maintain and restore their normal technical condition, and prevent the continued loss and damage of various vessel components.
