 Design Data Sheet
• Format and procedure for
development governed by “NAVSEA
Technical Standards Procedures
Appendix D – Design Data Sheets”
• Purpose
– Furnish standard data, methods of
calculation, and presentation of data
useful in the design of naval ships
– Establish design standards for those
systems or components which are in
accordance with naval practice
– Permit investigation and comparison of
ship, system, equipment, or component
designs submitted by various
contractors.
– Provide background information and
general concepts applicable to naval
ship design and construction.

 A DDS Can Describe Multiple
Methods
• DDS 310-1 Draft • Each Method has a
– Determining and dedicated section
Estimating Load
– Load Factor Analysis – General Requirements
– Zonal Load Factor Analysis – Specific Requirements
– Demand Factor – Use Cases (Appendix)
– Stochastic Load Analysis
– Modeling and Simulation
Load Analysis
– Comparing Trials Data with
Load Analysis

Each Method has its own range of Applicability

 Bottom Line

• Every Design Activity should

have a documented process
• The Design Data Sheet is Design Variable Assumptions

NAVSEA’s formal way of 1

documenting design processes

Design Activity
3

• Tailor the DDS format to 5

6

facilitate process modeling 7

Output
• A DDS can describe multiple
methods for different ranges of
applicability
• DDS complements Design
