The National Shipbuilding Research Program. 1997 Ship Production Symposium. Paper No. 3: Modular Outfitting

Abstract

The concept of modular construction is not new in the manufacturing, construction, automotive, aeronautical or marine industries. This concept is presented from the initial stages of design, and production, through ship builder's trials and operations. Through careful thought, engineering, and communications with all involved, from design, construction, and operation ensure a quality product with schedule reduction using modular outfitting. Each phase of modular outfitting is discussed to explain how it has effected, organizational issues, design issues, financial issues, production issues and life cycle or operational issues.
