1.1 This guide is a compendium of relevant publications, standards, and other necessary information related to commercial shipbuilding.

This guide is a listing of relevant publications, standards, and other information related to commercial shipbuilding. This guide has been developed to aid naval architects, ship designers, material and equipment suppliers, buyers, ship owners and operators, and government agencies by providing pertinent information in one document that can be used during various stages of commercial shipbuilding. These stages include design, planning, purchasing, material fabricating, assembling, testing, quality assurance, and inspection. This guide does not specify the use of a particular standard usage nor does it detail what the standard covers, and does not compare the different standards or specify which particular standard should be used for a particular product, test, or specific application. A partial list of sources for obtaining various standards is included.
