The structure was developed in accordance with the ISO standards, in particular the EN ISO 12215-10:2020 (Small craft – Hull construction and scantlings – Part 10: Rig loads and rig attachment in sailing craft). Structural analysis was performed to ensure that the structure could withstand extreme loading scenarios. Main tasks: geometry design, FEM and structural analysis, bolted connection design, technical documentation, project report and manufacturing supervision.
