This article presents work carried out on the ultimate shear strength of plates and stiffened panels. A simple formula for assessment of the ultimate shear strength of plates and stiffened panels was developed and is described. The proposed formula was verified against results from ABAQUS non-linear finite element software and a large number of published results. Good correlation was achieved. The method was also compared with published formulae and design codes. Application of the proposed method to the side shell structure of a double hull oil tanker of uniform thickness and non-uniform thickness was carried out and the results were found to compare favourably with results from ABAQUS. The method was also applied to collision damaged side shell structures.
