FIELD: ship building.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to shipbuilding and can be used in constructing and modernization of bulbous fore ends of ship hulls. Ship hull bulb bow comprises an outer skin and ring frames forming sections of the bulb bow, for fastening the ring frames to the outer skin and for interfastening the bulb bow sections connecting elements are used. In order to ensure the bulb bow mechanical compliance the maximum load of the connections of the bulb bow sections is regulated by changing the number, the square and mechanical characteristics of the material of the connecting elements.

EFFECT: safety of navigation is enhanced by the elimination of underwater holes in the collision of ships by increasing the mechanical compliance of the bulb bow in the longitudinal direction.
