Varying Hull Thickness
Varying Hull Thickness
(OP)
I am trying to represent the varying thickness of a GRP fishing boat, there are more laminates closer to the keel than the sheer but I can not come up with a way to model this. I need to have this detail in my model because i need the exact shape of Ribs and Girders in the hull.
Has anyone else had success trying to do a similar thing in CATIA?

I see you are using the YP1 module. I have been trying to get information about "Catia for Yacht" but have been unsuccessful. If you don't mind could you tell me how you like it? Is it Catia V5 with the YP modules activated or installed in V5? or is "Catia for Yacht" a stand-alone Catia program? Any information you could pass along would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry for the late reply
The YP1 package is a bundle of CATIA modules suited for yacht design, Part design 1, Gen. Shape 1, Freestyle Design, Drafting and a few others. Basically all the basics needed for yacht design. What is nice is you can easily upgrade to the YP2 and up packages which increase is functionality and specialize in specific forms of yacht/ship/boat design. I would defiantly recommend this package to start off with in the field of yacht/ship/boat design.
