Conclusion:

Ship Structure is a method to determinate the local and global strength of a ship based on analytical methods and DNV rules. The method is used to check if the plates thickness are enough for the cargo and hydrostatic loads.

More can be found at the DNV Rules and a simple How To presentation.
