Lina Diaz's past experience as a naval architect for a statutory
Authority and as a marine surveyor for a classification society
have given her a broad range of maritime knowledge and survey
experience. She has also been the Principal of a Naval Architecture
company for several years. This experience has led to her involvement
in providing technical advice for the development of a new National
Stability Standard for small vessels.
Lina’s experience and knowledge led her to publish “Submissions
for Survey and Classification: Do Yours Make the Grade? –
The Australian Naval Architect Volume 7 Number 1 February 2003”.
Lina has also been involved with the development of a stability
teaching aid for OTEN which included the development of a stability
book, loading calculator as well as shear force and bending
moment diagrams to be used in their Master 5 to Master 3 course.
Lina has been deeply involved in the design for the lengthening
and widening of several landing craft/container ships to 65
m. The new sections were designed to be inserted amidships and
the package delivered to the client included new stability books,
complete structural design in accordance to Classification Society
rules as well as piping schematics. She has also managed and
has been involved in the design of series of three 67 m deck
ships.
