The report presents the results and final analysis of the local ice load measurement conducted on the four deployments aboard the USCGC POLAR SEA between 1982-84. Data were collected in first year and multiyear level ice in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica. The report summarizes the previous data collection programs and provides the final data analysis of all data as a whole. A statistical analysis of extreme pressures and forces was performed for the data collected on all four deployments and is presented in the report. Pressures over one subpanel, four subpanels, and forces on frames, stringers (as if the ship were longitudinally framed), and the total load on the panel were fitted to 3 parameter extreme value distributions. The results of the extreme value statistics performed were then used to suggest ice load criteria in support of icebreaking ship design and hull design regulations for icebreaking ships.
