Recommended U.S. Shipbuilding Standards Program, Long-Range Plan. Volume 1

Abstract

During the past three years, a major effort has been established under the National Shipbuilding Research Program to support the development and implementation of standardization in the U.S. shipbuilding industry. While significant progress has been made during the preliminary phase of this program, it was the consensus of the program participants and other key industry representatives that expert assistance should be solicited to formally recommend a standards long-range plan for the U.S. Shipbuilding industry. A plan that would include standard program goals, objectives, plans, priorities, and other necessary courses of action. With this background, IHI Marine Technology, Inc., an American subsidiary of Ishikawajima- Harima Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (IHI). Japan, was selected to perform the task as described above. The principal objective of this task is to present a written recommended long-range plan for the U.S. Shipbuilding Standards Program baaed upon the knowledge and experience of the Japanese shipbuilding industry, Specifically, IHI.
