Shipbuilding

Design and construction of ships and offshore structures.

Also called: Shipbuilding · 조선소 · Shipyard

A heavy industry that builds ships and offshore structures from steel. In the part-production stage, cutting hull parts from large steel plates — Plate Nesting — appears as 2D Irregular Nesting. It shares the overlap-free placement core with apparel and sheet metal, but its manufacturability constraints are tougher: cutting path, bridges and common-line cuts that join parts into a single pass, and bevel preparation for downstream welding must all be reflected in the layout.

Claims & evidence

Every relationship is a claim with an evidence grade; applicable problem-to-problem relationships also carry an equivalence level. See the evidence policy.

A–X describes evidence reliability; E0–E4 describes mathematical similarity between problems. The two axes are independent.
