Book Description
Excerpt from Standardization of Ship Materials 1. It will be the aim in this paper to present a brief outline of the need, history, and possibilities of standardization in connection with some of the materials used in the construction and equipment of steel cargo ships. The paper is supplemented by five appendices, which will not be read, but whose examination, it is believed, will support the conclusions reached. 2. For all practical purposes "standardization" does not mean "making everything alike" - that is "imitation." The term signifies rather "regulation in accordance with a series of common criteria," and the efficiency of the standardization varies inversely with the profusion of the criteria and directly as the breadth of their applicability. There are at least three different phases of standardization as applied to ships - standardization of types, which is largely the owner's or operator's affair; standardization of designs, in which the shipbuilder is principally concerned; and standardization of materials, which is most vital to the manufacturer - and while all three phases are to some extent inter-related it is desirable not to confuse their respective scopes. The possibilities of standardizing the various types of ships may be limited by differing conditions of routes, harbors, and service, but standard ranges and grades of material can be applied to any ordinary types and designs. The present paper will confine itself to the standardization of ship materials, referring to the type or design of ships only in so far as the standardization of their materials may be affected thereby.
