Abstract: This paper outlines the methods of implementation for computer-aided design (CAD) and manufacturing within the shipbuilding industry. It is intended to show the most productive methods of computer-aided design and manufacturing based on logical research and development within a major shipyard. The differences between conventional methods and 3-D modeling are examined. Each topic is explained briefly to the extent that it is possible to derive positive results from the implementation of 3-D modeling; illustrations stress the point. The results described herein are achievable using current application packages presently available as a result of a commitment of progressive upper-level management to achieve the maximum productivity from the latest technology available.
