Structural Scantling Tables

Structural Scantling Tables

Minimum structural member dimensions from classification rules.

Detection heuristics:

• Keywords: "scantling", "plate thickness", "section modulus", "frame spacing", "shell plating", "deck plating", "stiffener", "web frame"
• Pattern: table with member type, location, and minimum dimensions
• Units: mm (thickness), cm³ (section modulus), mm (spacing)
• Context: classification society rules (ABS, DNV, LR, BV, ClassNK)

Key extraction fields:

- content_type: tables
  domain: naval_architecture
  sub_type: scantling_table
  data:
    title: "Minimum shell plating thickness"
    columns:
      - {name: location, units: null}
      - {name: min_thickness, units: mm}
      - {name: material_grade, units: null}
      - {name: frame_spacing, units: mm}
