The National Shipbuilding Research Program, 1990 Ship Production Symposium, Paper No. 7B-2: Photogrammetry, Shipcheck of USS Constellation (cv64) Arresting Gear Engines

Abstract

Arresting gear engines are large heavy pieces of machinery which are costly to replace because of expensive repairs and modifications to existing decks. These costs can be avoided and the units installed in a more timely efficient manner if the photogrammetric process is used. This article outlines the methods and techniques for using photogrammetry as a planning tool. It also demonstrates the practicality of collecting dimensional data from existing ship structures and foundations and using this data directly in the manufacturing phase of the equipment.
