Book Description
This report/database was developed under Project NSRP 6-94-1, World Class U.S. Shipbuilding Standards (Task 3). Task 3 (after several changes in guidance due to lack of availability of standards) was to look at four specific areas (Ventilation, Electrical, Piping and Structure) from which a matrix database was to be developed that cross-referenced 4 ship types (RO-RO, LNG, Ferries, Tankers) to standards supporting the desired domain (see below). The ventilation area was to address hangers and ventilation fittings; the electrical area was to address hangers and tray systems; the piping area was to address hangers, firemains, and fittings (select a few); and the structure area was to address components, ladders, and handrails. For each of these areas, standards were identified from either an existing paper index or digital database. Once standards were identified an attempt was made to get copies of the standards from MARAD since funding to purchase standards was not included in the tasking. MARAD had indicated in several SP-6 meetings that they had access to a significant number of standards and would make them available for various uses (uses were limited since most standards have COPYRIGHT restrictions). As will be seen, there were a significant number of standards that were identified but were not available from MARAD from a variety of reasons (funding being the most significant; government shutdowns were also a factor).

A Compendium of Shipbuilding Standards. Interim Report on Subtask III: Foreign Shipbuilding Standards
Shipbuilding Technology and Education
Author: Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences

ISBN: 030905382X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
The U.S. shipbuilding industry now confronts grave challenges in providing essential support of national objectives. With recent emphasis on renewal of the U.S. naval fleet, followed by the defense builddown, U.S. shipbuilders have fallen far behind in commercial ship construction, and face powerful new competition from abroad. This book examines ways to reestablish the U.S. industry, to provide a technology base and R&D infrastructure sustaining both commercial and military goals. Comparing U.S. and foreign shipbuilders in four technological areas, the authors find that U.S. builders lag most severely in business process technologies, and in technologies of new products and materials. New advances in system technologies, such as simulation, are also needed, as are continuing developments in shipyard production technologies. The report identifies roles that various government agencies, academia, and, especially, industry itself must play for the U.S. shipbuilding industry to attempt a turnaround.
