SNAME To Play Major Role
In Converting Milspecs
To Commercial Standards
The Society of Naval Archi-
tects and Marine Engineers
(SNAME) in cooperation with
the Naval Sea Systems Command
(NAVSEA), and the American
Society for Testing and Mate-
rials (ASTM), is going to make
a major effort to help develop
more U.S. Shipbuilding Stand-
ards.
The Technical and Research
(T&R) Steering Committee of
the society has approved a plan
for technical experts of the T&R
panels to review and update se-
lected naval specifications and
standard drawings before their
development into voluntary ship-
building standards. This will
serve to speed up the National
Shipbuilding Standards Program.
There are many thousands of
MILSPECS, a portion of which
are ideal for converting into
commercial shipbuilding stand-
ards. SNAME will do the job
of updating with the aid of T&R
volunteers, and turn them over
to the ASTM Committee F-25 on
shipbuilding for development into
published standards.
SNAME officials said it is an
accepted fact that an extensive
and comprehensive set of ship-
building standards can be instru-
mental in lowering costs and im-
proving the shipbuilding process.
The ASTM program to develop
shipbuilding standards was be-
gun in 1977 with the reactiva-
tion of the SNAME Panel SP-6
(Standards and Specifications) of
the Ship Production Committee
of the society. Panel SP-6 has
been serving as the industry's
guidance committee as the stand-
ards are being developed through
ASTM consensus process and
published by that organization.
Panel SP-6 will serve as
SNAME's control committee on
this expanded program of com-
mercializing the MILSPECS, co-
ordinating the flow through the
SNAME organization to the
ASTM committees.
