In this study, an improved aluminum alloy (6082-T6) was used to develop a unique model of an aluminum ladder for usage in offshore plant. The structural strength design was carried out in accordance with international standards such as ISO, NORSOK Austria Standard. Load combination was performed to satisfy all conditions. The structural safety of the designed model was verified using SACS, an analysis program for offshore plants based on the Finite elements method. The analysis results confirmed that both stress and deflection were satisfied within the acceptance criteria. The developed model can be applied used in various fields in the near future as it meets all the necessary criteria and is lightweight and has improved productivity.
