CONCEPT DESIGN
Working closely with Designers, integrating the Owner’s requirements and the Designer’s concepts with Statutory and Classification requirements Navarch is involved in several concept projects. Our support can range from initial overviews of design proposals to support through the design, tendering and build phase.
INITIAL DESIGN
Initial design package is essential to develop the design for the Owner’s requirements or validate a design for a tendering quotation process ensuring that any contractual issues are achievable. A typical selection of initial design documents would include specifications, 2D and 3D layouts, weight estimates, performance prediction, speed and range calculations, class and flag compliance, intact and damage stability and initial scantling review.
BASIC DESIGN
Hull structural design covers the overall definition of the ship’s structure, proving sufficient structural strength that offer the best solution for design with weight, performance or cost criteria as the project demands. This approach is used for new designs, refits or conversions. With basic design we also cover system diagrams, outfitting and coordination layouts inside of ship interior and technical spaces.
DETAIL DESIGN
Detail design level is most important at the refit and conversion projects where we want to improve existing solutions starting from overall sizes to small details.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT
At Navarch, we can offer a technical support services designed to integrate within our Owner Representative or Project Management services. Attendance at the builders premises during the construction or conversion process to physically inspect the work of the builder to ensure that the workmanship and materials are of the required quality.
Attendance at the builders premises to witness tests and trials on behalf of the Owner including inclining test, harbour trials and final contractual sea-trials.
