Human Factors Analysis and Layout Guideline Development for the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) Project

Abstract

These guidelines have been developed under contract to the DRDC Toronto Human Systems Integration (HSI) Section in support of the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) project. The goal of the project was to provide the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) with a set of guidelines on analysis, design, and verification processes for effective room, equipment, and workstation layout in the bridge, operations room, machinery control room (MCR), and communications control room (CCR) in the yet to be designed CSC. The guideline development drew upon experience in the design of control spaces for complex systems, from existing guidance documents, and from interviews with domain experts.
