ASNE Day Professional Development
Naval Vessel Rules Workshop 
Instructors: ABS Staff with support from NAVSEA
Wednesday, 21 June, 8:30 am to noon
Early Stage Ship Design Seminar 
Instructors: Ben Capuco and Sean P. Walsh
Wednesday, 21 June, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm with a break for lunch
Naval Sea Systems Command and the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) have 
collaborated to develop and implement a set of Naval Vessel Rules.
These rules are intended for use in the design, construction,
maintenance and modernization of non-nuclear naval combatant ships.
This allows in-house Navy engineering resources to be focused more on
the higher risk mission related aspects of combatants, while maintaining
technical control via close collaboration with ABS on the Naval Vessel
Rules - the foundation for the process. The Navy retains technical
authority but uses ABS as a business partner to administer the Naval
Vessel Rules and as an agent in classing ships to the Naval Vessel
Rules. This workshop will provide an overview of the Naval Vessel
Rules. The cost to attend is $150.
This course is an overview of the early stage ship-design process, 
encompassing feasibility studies and preliminary design to show how an
integrated ship design is developed, starting with a statement of the
owner's requirements. Topics addressed include preliminary performance
studies, ship synthesis models; hull, machinery, combat systems, and
systems engineering analyses, trade-off studies, design integration; and
notes on the design of specific ship types, including high-performance
ships. The course is of value to engineers new to the field in ship
design or already working in the field but not familiar with the
early-stage design process. It will also be a refresher course for those
naval architects and marine engineers wishing to update their skills in
early phase ship design. All participants will be provided with copies
of the instructor's presentation slides as well as a certificate of
completion. Opportunities will be available for discussion between
learners and the lecturer. This is a well-established course that has
been presented previously.

Professional Development Hours (PDH) assigned: 7.0

Cost to attend is $150 for ASNE/SNAME members and $275 for non-members.
