Thestructural design of a ship'ssection is a complicated, repetitive and time consuming task. With the advent of new technology, high speed computers haveenab.e. theship designer to accomplish in a matter of seconds what would formerly take days to accomplish by hand. Thestructural synthesis Design Program (ssDP) is a N avy developed computer-aided design tool which is used to design (or to analyze) the longitudinal scantlings for a variety of ship crosssections, consisting of any practical combinations of decks, platforms, bulkheads and materials, i.e., varioussteel and aluminum alloys. The final hull section design will have the lowest practical weight for the chosen geometric configuration, structural arrangements, and imposed loadings. Thescantling developed by the program will satisfy all U.s. N avy ship structural design criteria. An explanation of the ob.e.tive and design elements of N avy ship structures is included. The rationalebehind thessDP design philosophy is developed along with thesignificant program capabilities. In an attempt to highlight the influence of automated design procedures on the current naval ship design process, theeffect of thessDP on the DDG 51 destroyer structural development is addressed.

This paper presents an integrated approach to computer-Aided ship Design for U.s. Navy preliminary and contract design. An integrated Hull Design system (HDs), currently under development by the Hull Group of the Naval sea systems Command (NAVseA 32). is the vehicle for the discussion. This paper is directed toward practicing ship design professionals and the managers of theship design process. Primary emphasis of this paper, and of the development effort currently under way, is on aiding ship design professionals in their work. Focus is on integration and management control of theextremely complex set of processes which make up naval ship design. The terminology of theship Designer and Design Manager is used. The reader needs no familiarity with the technologies of computerscience.
