ICAM Manufacturing Cost/Design Guide. Volume 1. Airframes. User's Manual.

Abstract

The Manufacturing Cost/Design Guide (MC/DG) enables airframe and electronic designers to achieve lowest cost by conducting trade-offs between manufacturing cost and other design factors. When fully developed, the MC/DG will, for example, permit airframe designers, at all levels of the design process, to quickly perform cost-trade comparisons of manufacturing processes and structural performance/cost trade-offs on airframe components and subassemblies in metallic and composite materials.
