Pillers (from the English. Pillar - column or pillar) - the bearing element of the ship set on which deck beams are stacked. It is a single vertical support post, which serves as a support for the ship deck taking on its weight, as well as the weight of deck cargo and equipment.
With the multi-deck layout of the ship structure, pillers are usually installed one below the other under each deck and in the hold, so that a single straight line is created that transfers the weight of the cargo from the decks to the bottom floor. In shipbuilding, pillers can be permanent and folding .
The ends of the pilots are connected to the beams of the ship's set using knits , to the beams are attached using the headrests, and to the deck itself - with special shoes. Pillers can have a round or any other cross-sectional shape, but a thick-walled pipe is considered the best choice for their profile. Often in shipbuilding, welded pillers are also used, consisting of several profiles ( channel , square, sheet) [1] [2] .
