This document provides formulas for calculating the surface areas of different geometric shapes and vessels.
For rectangular shapes, the surface area is length x width. For cubes, the total surface area is 2 x (length x width) + 2 x (length x height) + 2 x (width x height).
The surface area of a circle is π x radius squared. The surface area of a cylindrical shell is π x diameter x height.
Formulas are also given to estimate the surface areas of different parts of vessels, including the bottom area as ((2 x draft) + breadth) x length between perpendiculars x a coefficient, topside area as 2 x height x (length overall + 0.5

B = Breadth extreme
D = Depth
T = Draft
Lpp = length between
perpendiculars Loa = length over all
Bottom (incl. Boottop) Area = ((2 x T) +B) x Lbp x P
Where T = draft maximum B = breadth extreme Lbp = length between perpendiculars P = 0,90 for big tankers P = 0,85 for bulk carriers P = 0,70 - 0,75 for dry cargo ships

Topsides Area = 2 x H x (Loa + 0,5 x B) Where H = height of topsides (D - T) B = breadth extreme Loa = length over all
Weatherdecks (incl. A = Loa x B x N
Upper top of deck houses) (Accuracy depends on choice of N which indicates the actual area in relation to its circumscribed Rectangular) Where Loa = length over all B = breadth extreme N = 0,91 for big tankers and bulk carriers N = 0,88 for cargo vessels N = 0,84 for coasters etc.
