Chapter 8 – General Arrangement8.3.3 Demonstration Phase Activities8.3.3.1 Develop HFI Design Rules for General ArrangementPurposeTo collate all HFI design specifications which influence theGeneral Arrangement, and to review the design of the GeneralArrangement in the light of these specifications. Also todocument succinctly the HFI design rules for GeneralArrangement development and to define acceptance criteria.Inputs • The HFI General Arrangement Policy (Sect 8.3.2.1)• Outline layouts of General ArrangementMethods • Task Synthesis• Link Analysis• Escape Analysis• Workspace Design• Health and Safety Analysis• Synthetic User ModellingSteps • Collate the workstation layouts from Workspace Design ofthe functional areas, Bridge, Ship Control Centre, manoeuvringroom, aviation, offices and Upper Deck (Chap 9).• Collate the Ship project accommodation and miscellaneousspaces adjacency and layout requirements using TaskSynthesis and Link Analysis (Chap 10 and Chap 11).• Liaise with System Project Managers to collate theworkstation layout requirements for the functional areas inOperations and Control compartments, weapon spaces,electrical and machinery spaces (Chap 14).• Collate the outputs of the traffic flow analyses making use ofLink Analysis or Escape Analysis (Chap 12).• Collate environmental specifications (Chap 13).• Review the implications of HFI policy on Systems Routingand Deck Height.• Review HFI General Arrangement requirements usingdecision criteria generated in earlier Phases. Contribute toGeneral Arrangement design drawings.• Use the workspace layout requirements and other factorsaffecting layout to identify requirements and constraints thatwill apply to the General Arrangement using Link Analysisand Synthetic User Modelling.HFI ActivitiesNov 2006 Page 8-15 Issue 4
