MIL-STD-3045, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE DESIGN CRITERIA STANDARD: U.S. NAVY SURFACE SHIP MACHINERY ARRANGEMENTS (21-MAR-2014)
MIL-STD-3045, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE DESIGN CRITERIA STANDARD: U.S. NAVY SURFACE SHIP MACHINERY ARRANGEMENTS (21-MAR-2014)., The purpose of this standard is to outline design practices and criteria for use during the development of
machinery systems arrangements throughout Pre-Milestone B design activities. Pre-Milestone B design activities
are defined as the engineering activities that take place during Exploratory Design, Pre-Analysis of Alternatives
studies, Analysis of Alternatives studies, Pre-Preliminary, Preliminary, and Contract Design phases of non-nuclear
surface ship new acquisitions and conversions. The content contained herein was developed from active naval
shipbuilding specifications, past design experience, and insight into in-service maintenance issues across the fleet.
This standard acts as a baseline for surface ship (non-nuclear) machinery systems arrangements designs prepared by
or for the Naval Sea Systems Command unless written exception is granted.
