A ship-cost computer tool has been developed to estimate U.S. Naval Surface Ship construction for both shop and field Engineered Uniform Method and Standards and current Naval shipbuilding practices. This procedure has been incorporated into the Ship Structural Cost Program (SSCP) to provide a means of rapidly estimating structural cost for ship structures. In this form SSCP provides a three-phase cost analysis where the shop erection and field installation procedures are included in Phases 2 and 3 and the panel/grillage shop assembly procedures are included in Phase 1. The overall aim of our cost program is to develop a cost/weight tradeoff tool that has the capability of performing weight/cost optimization tradeoff studies. This information will become useful for Navy research and design communities in assessing high cost areas in the new ship construction, identification of optimum plate-beam combinations with respect to cost and/or weight, and the identification of materials and design details which tend to reduce cost.
