Projected Areas and Wind Forces Calculation

This document calculates the projected areas, wind pressures, and wind forces for the hull and derrick of an NRL (JU2000) vessel according to ABS 2020 standards. It provides the dimensions and coefficients needed to calculate the surface areas, centroid heights, wind pressures, and total wind forces on the hull and derrick in both imperial and metric units. The total projected wind force calculated on the hull and derrick is 834 kips and 791 kips in imperial units and 154,946 kg and 168,268 kg in metric units.
