Design For Production

DESIGN FOR PRODUCTION
Design for Production is the deliberate

act of designing a product to meet its
specified technical and operational
requirements and quality so that the
production costs will be minimal
through low work content and ease of
construction

All design should be prepared to suit a shipyards facilities and

preferred production methods.
It has been necessary to develop the DFP approach because
designers have not stepped up to this responsibility.
DFP takes into account production methods and techniques that
reduce the product work content, but still meet the specified
design requirements and quality.
DFP must be incorporated into a design from the start.
Traditional engineering leaves it up to another department, such
as Production or Manufacturing Engineering to develop the
technical documentation required by the Production workers.
This is an un-necessary duplication of effort and is a non-value
added task that takes time.
12/15/98
An objective of the new (relatively) Concurrent Engineering

approach is to accommodate DFP by bringing all the necessary
people together right from day one on a project.
The time to influence the cost of a product is during the early
stages. After the design has been develop in concept most of the
opportunity to positively affect cost is gone.
World class ship designers know how their shipyard builds ships
and designs accordingly. U.S. ship designers usually do not
consider this and the designs may or may not be efficiently built
in their facilities. More U.S. shipbuilders have taken steps to
remedy this situation through the use of the Build Strategy
approach.
Engineering should be prepared and transmitted to the users in a
way that best suits the way they build their ships.

OBVIOUS SHIPYARD IMPOSED REQUIREMENTS

Ship dimensions limits
Block maximum weight and size
Panel maximum size
Panel Line turning and rotating capabilities (Turning not
required with one sided welding)
NOT OBVIOUS SHIPYARD IMPOSED REQUIREMENTS
Maximum berth loading ( affects the amount of Advanced
Outfitting)
Spread of launchways
Maximum launch pressure on ships hull
