 Group 5 : equipment serving crew and passengers such as the lifesaving appliances, furniture,
catering equipment, and sanitary systems.
 Group 6 : machinery main components including main engines, auxiliary systems, propellers,
boilers, and generators.
 Group 7 : equipment serving main machinery such as fuel and oil lubrication systems, starting
air systems, exhaust systems, and automation systems.
 Group 8 : ship Common Systems such as ballast and bilge systems, firefighting and electrical
distribution systems. Ship systems and their components provide detailed technical information needed
for weight
assessment, price estimation and production planning. Ship classification systems have been developed
to provide to the yards and to the companies involved in the management and operation of ships tools
to support ship specifications, estimates of light ship weight, ship building (or repair) costs and
systematically sort listed information on the procurement of materials, equipment and services. In brief,
there are three basic ship classification systems namely : (a) MARAD (MARitime Administration) used
by the U.S.A. administration; (b) SWBS- Ship Work Breakdown Structure, used by the USA Navy and
(c) .SFI– developed by the Norge Skips Forsknings Institutt (NSFI) of Norway, and is now property of
XANTIC ().
