Slam Deck
The Tensa Slam Deck is used on offshore supply vessels or barges to reduce the impact force on the vessel deck during loading and unloading operations in harsh environments.
The Slam Deck is designed to absorb the kinetic energy of a 10t load dropping at a maximum speed of 1.5 m/sec. This is equivalent to the minimum required speed for the drop test specified in DnV Standard For Certification No. 2.7.1 – Offshore Containers. It is also significantly faster than typical crane auxiliary line speeds.
The Slam Deck is designed for vessels with a 5 t/m2 deck strength. The Slam Deck is made in panels which can be individually repaired or replaced. The size of the deck area can be chosen to suit the size of or amount of cargo that needs to be landed or supported. The Slam Deck is normally transported in a standard 20ft open top sea container. Each container can carry a maximum of 12 panels 5.8m x 1.1m equivalent to a covered area of 76.6 m2. This provides an area of 17.4m x 2.2m needed for long tool baskets or 11.6m x 3.3m suitable for landing 20ft containers.
