Abstract

The design process in the maritime industry is characterized by a close cooperation of many diverse partners working in parallel. In this phase, standardization is used to reduce costs, to improve quality, and to shorten time to market. In this paper, an electronic system for the definition, management, and application of standardized solutions for steel structural design is presented. Information about the approach to data modeling applied and the interaction with existing applications is given.
