LASS

The project LASS, was a VINNOVA and industry sponsored Swedish research project, coordinated by SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden (now RISE), that were run between 2004 and 2008. The project aim was to re-design five existing vessels and one offshore living quarter using new lightweight composite and aluminium materials.
