Criteria for Evaluating Work Content and Production Costs of Ship Design Alternatives

The objective of this paper was to develop criteria for use by ship designers to evaluate the production costs differences among several design alternatives at concept/contract design stages. In general, present practices for such evaluation employ weight-related criteria. The particular objective was to arrange such criteria as a consequence of a procedure based more on the actual work content of the design rather than on its material weights. An additional proposal of the research is to apply or develop a method that could efficiently employ such criteria.
