Vessels on the Lower Elbe Estuary experience draft increasing impacts from confined waters like squat as well as influences due to density and maneuvering motions. Recent ship size developments towards vessel units with 22000 TEU stresses out the gap between existing design approaches and present fleet sizes. With the central method of extensive field-investigations on the Lower Elbe sea-waterway, this dissertation analyses and assesses generally accepted dynamic draft determination approaches. The work discovers that with increasing ship sizes, safety margins within the squat determination approaches decrease to a critical extend. On the other hand, the dissertation discovers unutilized safety margins within the draft determination process.
