SAWE Recommended Practice No. XX
1 Scope
This recommended practice provides clarification and guidance for implementing the
Expanded Ship Work Breakdown Structure (ESWBS) weight classification system. This
guidance provides a common weight system that transcends all ship classes. The
recommended practice will provide a static classification system based on the original
1985 ESWBS document and the current dynamic database. This document does not
replace ESWBS for historical weight keeping. The purpose of this document is to
incorporate weight classification changes due to changing technology, construction
practices, and other issues as they arise.
2 Purpose
There is a need for guidance on the use of the current weight classification processes and
practice. Currently there resides a different weight classification system for different ship
classes based off of the 1985 ESWBS document. The current database for weight
classification is available only online and does not contain detailed descriptions for
weight classification. Additionally, certain new technologies do not have a home in the
current weight classification system. The purpose of this document is to provide
clarification for using the ESWBS weight classification system in a static form that
includes details.
3 Associated Documents
This optional section should show complementary or other associated documents used
with this RP. This is not a bibliography of citations used within this document; that is

This recommended practice shall be used in conjunction with the following publications.
