This paper is concerned with efficient methods for estimating load effects and reliability and their application to preliminary structural design of box-type VLFS supposed as a floating airport, which is to be put in the west area of the Inland Sea of Japan (“Setonaikai”). In this study, as the first report, structural responses in oblique waves are investigated by using the efficient method based on Weighted Residual Method combined with thin plate and shallow water approximation presented by Tsubogo (2004). Effects of wavelength and wave incident angles on characteristics of the structural response are clarified from results obtained by numerical calculation. These results can be used to evaluate the load effect and the reliability in next report.
