Manufacturing costs are separately estimated for the primary elements of substructure: ribs, spars, covers, leading edges, trailing edges, tips, etc. The trade study me'Jiud provides ;ui iierutive capability stemming from a direct interface with design synthesis programs. A detailed cost data base ;uid system for data expansion is provided. The methods are designed for ease in changing cost estimating relationships and estimating coefficients resulting from cost data update.

l'his vnlmm' in the lonti ol' an K.slimalini; Handbook and I'scr's Manual provides the msl rtK'Uon.s iicccssary lor makilifi; :i cost t\stiinalr usinu, ci Hier what is rdiri-cd to as the trade study rosi rstim.iiir.o inctiiod or the aii'lraiiH' system cost esüniaUng method, ll deserilies these estimating teelini(|ues in terms ol inpuLs and outputs of the eomputer- i/ed programs used, the eost eslimatiiiK relaLioaslüps involved, the organization imd sourees ol inputs, ineludin^, other supporting eomputer programs, and the eost model eompuler program. An example estimate in the lorm ol a demonsiraiion ease is also deserihed. The Kslimaling Handbook together with a Teehnieal Volume comprise the final Report lor Air Force Contract K.'i.'itilö-Tj!-C'-^t)s:i. The Technical Volume supple- ments this duscussion by describing the development ol' the methods, by defining eost categories, and by discussing some of the liiuitations of the methods. The emphasis in this volume is on the user's point of view and thus on the mechanics of the procedure The two estimating methods to be discussed are distinct in terms of the categories of cost involved, the level of detail at which estimates are made, the cost estimatLng re- lationships involved, and the resulting inputs and input sources. The trade study method involves a very detailed level of estimaiing for basic structure only. The sys-

tem costing method involves a higher (subsystem) level but includes both structural and

mechanical subsystems of the aircraft airframe. The term awlrame, which may be used in conjunction with either method, is defined as including only basic structure in the case of the trade study method but as including basic structure plus mechanical subsystems in the ease of the system method. The different sets of input required for each method in turn entail a different output from the area of preliminary design sup- ])ort, or specifically from the supporting design syntliesis programs in the case ol the

trade study method.

The trade study estimating technique, in general, requires that the supporting design synthesis programs operate in an iterative manner, although, point design estimates can be made with the input data being developed manually. The number of inputs re- quired initially to set up a run is quite extensive. Generally, however, only a few in- put variations are required for subsequent trade study alternatives.

A combined trade study-system method mode of operation may be selected. This is based on a modular estimating approach wherein both subsystem level CEHs and de- tailed estimating routines are available for structural subsystems. This option is ex- ercised by zeroing out one or the other method selectively by subsystem. Thus, a structural element of particular interest may be estimated in detail with the remaining elements being- estimated at an aggregate level.

1. I HOW TO MAKK AN KSTLMATK

1,1.1 TKADK S'lTDV luSTLMATliNc; M K'J'IIOi;. FlRure 1 gives an ouüine ol' the trade study estimating method and the flow of information required in this process. In this deseription of the method, which is intended to provide an introduction only, the dis- cussion will begin with the cost output and work backwards through the various phases ol' (he program to the procedure tor the- development ol' input data.

The cost output is described and defined by the computer printout formats, samples of which are given in figures 2 through 5, These represent a complete set of computer printouts except that two additional Recurring Production (Manufacturing) Cost print- outs are provided for two alternative production quantities, and also that this series of printouts is provided for each of the structural elements: wing, horizontal stabil- izer, vertical stabilizer, fuselage, nacelles and landing gear.

The Cost Model, comprising the cost estimating logic, consists of sets of CEHs devel- oped for each of the items of cost identified in the computer printouts. These CEHs are described in Section 2.3. Their derivation is discussed in Volume i. Figure 0 gives examples of manufacturing first unit CEHs for labor and material. .Many other forms aw involved. Manufacturing First Unit Cost Is an estimating' convention based on using' theoretical first unit cost as the basis for estimating manufacturing costs.

It is sometimes necessary to augment the standard procedure, as represented by the CFits, with special procedures and analyses. These require definition tor each in- dividual ease and may or may not be of a nature to permit Incorporation in the main body of CEHs,

The estimating method makes use of an existing general cost program, designated as COSTC, that operates as a data manager program and handles the cost estimating logic as a program input. This provides a simple means of modifying' cost estimating relationships. These are accomplished simpb, by changing an input model card and the corresponding input variable(s). This program Is discussed further in Section 2.2,

The total set of CEHs generates the variable Input requirement entered In the pro- gram as NAMELIST variables. These, together with the model cards, constitute the input package. The model cards, which Include the CEH entries, constitute an input whenever they are to be revised. They may be revised for either of two reasons: (1 ) as previously mentioned, to change the form of a CEH, or (2) to change« an esti- mating coefficient. These coefficients appear as constants within the CEHs, and

put relationships are involved as mii;ht be suspected from the number of mode! card

entries involved. Section 2.2 provides a complete cost model computer program des-

cription, including COSTC program .subroutines, model card listing, input listings,

XAMKLLST variables dictionary, ami an estimatuig coefficients summary and locator.

Section 2..,i identities cac1- of the CKKs involved and relates then to the computer

program.

Input development is illusl rated by figure 11. The option ol'CKR revisions, shown in

Figure Id, is excluded, however, since such changes, although 1 lie rally handled as

inputs, arc best thought of in a separate category. Input development is then defined

as being within the context of an existing set of CKKs,

As shown by Figure 11, various synthesis program runs are required to support the

development of inputs. These provide design information required in the estimating

process. There are three such programs: (1 ) An Automated Program for Aerospace

-- Vehicle Synthesis (Ai'ASj, (2 ) A Program for Development of Aircrab Fuselage,

Nacelle and Landing (iear Weights, and (,'J) The Tip, Leading and Trailing Kdge Analy-

sis Program. The first of these in turn supports the second. The third program oper

ales independenllv. A technical description of these programs is given in Section V

of Volume I.

Fach of these programs also has an input requirement. Those input requirements,

operating Instructions for program runs, and output data transfer worksheets are

covered in Section 2.4 of this Handbook,

The weight analysis for aerodynamic surfaces primary structure involves the use of

correlation factors applied to the output of APAS. These factors arc in turn based on

weights research data from studies conducted concurrently with but separate from

this study, A separate design synthesis and weight analysis procedure, the Tip,

Leading ;uid Trailing Kdge Analysis Program, is used for aerodynamic surfaces sec-

in data such as shown in Table 1. Correlation factors are calculated as the ratio ol"

actual weight to synthesis weight. They provide a measure of the credibility of the synthesized weight and can be used as analogs in estimating similar structural cle- IIK'HUS,

The weight analysis for fuselage structure, both primary and secondary, is handled by

the Program for Development of Aircraft Fuselage, Nacelle and Landing Gear Weights driven by the Al'AS program. It provides weights data as shown in Figure 12.

Historical data is used to develop various factors; learning curve factors; scaling exponents; engineering, tooling, and manufacturing factors; and material cost factors.

The tables summarizing' these factors, the location in the Handbook of back-up data, and the model card deck location of the CFRs in which these factors are used are given in Section 2. 3,

The development of baseline costing factors and complexity factors is interrelated. Their development is fully explained in Volume 1, Section 11. Briefly, the following steps are involved:

a. Development of complexity factors for primary structure by means of an industrial engineering analysis relating alternate types of construction and material to a baseline hardware clement of known cost, thereby indicating cost ratios.

b. The normalization of historical data by weight and by type of construction and material.

numerical relalionship to a nominal element of hardware that utili/.es a haseline type

ol construction and material. The individual niumifacTurixig operations are cvuluulfd li\ means of standard hours and a ratio ol cost is est;ildished as a measure of complexUy,

The original intent of this study was to deal only with primary structure, il was reco^-

ni/cil early in the study, however, that the secondary structure was of equal .significance from a cost standpoint, and the cITort was redirected accnrdinglv. Hardware elemenfs making up secondary structure do not tend In tall into type of construction categories as conveniently as do those of primary structure. This complication is reflecled inthe complexity factor tables for secondary stniclurc.

A provision is Included in the method for applying learning curve factors at the detailed level shown in figure 2, Development of the factors themselves was not included with- in the scope of the study. Values for these factors may be supplied by the user, how- ever, according to available data.

Labor rates are Lnput.s to the model. Kconomic escalation relating to labor may be luuidled through these inputs. Variations in labor costs, as for example differences be- tween manufacturers, can thus be accounted for,

1.1.2 .SYSTKAl COST KSTLMATINC. MKTiJOi). figure Ki gives an outline of the sys- tem cost estimaling method and the flow of information required in this process. The cost output is defined by the set of computer printouts shown as figures 11 through 17. The Cost Model consists ol sets of CKH.s developed for each of the items of cost identi-

fied in the compuler printouts. These C'fKs are described in Section ;j.;i. Their der-

ivation is discussed in Volume I. Figure Us gives examples of a lew of the various types of (,' Kite used.

The estimating method makes use of the same genera! cost program as the trade study

method. The computer program module for the system costing model is described in

Section .'!.-. The conveiitioas regarding NAM f LIST variable inputs, model cards and model card changes is similar to (he trade study method.

The computer program deck set-up for system costing is the same as for the trade stud\ method illustrated in figure T. Variations occur in the use of control cards, title card, and option card. Inpu's comprise NAMflTST CURVH, NAMKLIST SUM- MARY, and Model Card entries. Individual subsets of model cards are assigned to

Ijiput de\ elnniiieiit Pir Mir SNsiem i'nstiti^, method can lie explained with reference to

I'iL'.mv l.'l. Weights data i.1- oiitainol from a standard grouj) v\'clg'hl statement. Com-

plexity factors, sealiiu; factor:-', eslimalim; factors, and factors for Inflation and

learning are derived from bistoi-ica! cost data. The concept of complexity at this level ol estimating is different than at the trade study level. Speed is used as a cost relat-

ed variable in estimating one (lenient of cost and is ohtaiued from the design data.

Lahor rates are selected and input as appropriate. Production rales and '[iiantities

are obtained from program schedules.

The development ol baseline costing factors and complexity factors is again inter-

related. Thei r de\ i lopmeni is explained in Volume 1, Section ILL.

In the system costing method, manufacturing costs are estimated in dollars by combin-

ing labor and materials. This introduces the need for considering economic escala-

tion and the time reference for dollar values. In the trade study method, labor and

material are separated and only material costs require an adjustment for inflation.

The iwo estimating methods can lie used in a combined mode whereby a detailed first

unit cost estimate from 'he trade study method can be substituted for the comparable

estimate of the system costing method. This mode might be used, for example, when

a detailed analysis is required for only one structural comixment while, at the same

time, a total airframe system estimate is needed,

1.2 OIUIANI/ATION Of TIIK HANDBOOK

The remainder ol the handbook provides complete instructions in the use of the methods

briefly described above. The remainder of this section describes the Handbook

organization.

Both estimating methods are described in detail: the Trade Study Method in Section 11

and the System Costing Method in Section HI, Similar outlines are followed for each

description. The complete set of computer printouts is described under Costs Ksti-

mated. The cost model computer program is completely described in Section 2.2.

This description is supplemented by appendices that replicate pertinent portions of the

program. Section 2..'i provides a type listing of all CElls used, gives input summaries

organized by cost category and related to the CERs, cross references items of cost

and the corresponding CER, identifies the location of the model card calling' out a

given calculation, summarizes the values used for estimating coefficients, and locates

the relevant back-up data. Section 2.4 gives additional instructions covering the sub-

mittal of Hie program deck to the computer operation. 24

TRADK .STUDY COST KSTIMATING Mi;TII()D

TliiK section describes the trade study cost estimating method and provides the user with the instructions necessary for making an estimate, including ini'ormalion relevant to the supporting design synthesis programs involved. The subject of methods research and development is covered either in Volume 1 or in previous reports, as referenced.

2. 1 COSTS KST1.MATKD

Costs are estimated in a variety of ways for each of the following hardware com- ponents:

Aerodynamic Surfaces: Wing Horizontal Stabilizer Vertical Stabilizer

Fuselage

Nacelles

Landing Gears

The different tyi^es of cost outputs provided consist of:

a. First Unit Manufacturing Costs

b. RDT&F Units Manufacturing Costs

c. Production Units Manufacturing Costs - Quantity 1

d. Production Units Manufacturing Costs - Quantity 2

e. Nonrecurring Design and Development Costs

f. Recurring Production Costs - Summary

The combination of components and types of output produces 3G separate printouts for a given cost estimate. Shown in Section 1.1.1 was four types of output corresponding to a, b, e, and f above. Output types c and d are identical to type b except for the production quantity involved. The variation in output format by hardware component is illustrated by Figures 19 through 24, representing first unit cost for each com- ponent. The 3G printouts are summarized in Table 2, The haixlware components

The relationship of the above subset of costs to a complete weapon system cost slmcture and to the CTR definitions of cost elements is covered in Volume I, Section

2.:.1 COST MODI- I, COMPUTKR PROGKAM

The computer program serves to organize the cost eslimuting task. The estimating process is accomplished in terms of going to the proper sources for the necessary input data, evaluating estimating coefficients in view of additional data acquisition and previous estimating results, and setting up the computer program dec1.;. The cost estimating logic is also of immediate relevance, but its discussion has been deferred to Section 2.3 so that computer oriented terminology will have been covered.

The cost model computer pi'ogrum makes use of a general cost model program (desig- nated as COSTC) taking advantage of certain features of that program. COSTC is a data manager program written in FORTRAN IV for the CDC CYBFH 72. Features include treating the cost estimating logic as a program input, handling the cost output as an array (called the SAV matrix) in a manner whereby it is both addressable and displayable, and providing for a consistent pattern of costing in going from one hard- ware element to the next.

Treaing the estimating logic as a program input provides a simple means of modify- ing cost estimating relationships. These are accomplished simply by changing an input model card and making an appropriate input variable change. Changes to esti- mating coefficients, which might, for example, result from additional analyses of historical cost data, can be accomplished simply by an input model card change; and if a time-sharing set-up is being used, this cam be done on the card and graphically on a CRT display by means of a keyboai'd control.

Use of the SAV array printout provides for a display of intermediate computational results and permits the cost analyst to utilize computational results that are not typically available in a cost output format. Kleinents in this array may be used as terms in the cost estimating relationships.

The deck set-up for the complete cost program was shown in Figure 7. As can be seen, the major elements of the pi'ogram are the control cards, the program deck, title and option cards, the variable input, i.e. , NAMKL1ST, section of the input

that the model cards have been entered on tape by appropriate request. Entering the word MKHGl provides for obtaining input from both TAPE and new input cards and is used for any change in input values or CERs for multicase runs.

When the MERGE option is being used, the program will assume that a baseline model

has been previously stored on tape and that the cards contained in tue Cost Model section of input are to be merged with the baseline model to produce and process an updated

model. The following rules should be observed when merging:

a. '/■, R and F cards only can be merged.

b. When replacing an element of the SAV matrix all the terms that make up that element should be replaced.

As many blocks aix- rea<l as aif specilied by the number oi'elements punched in the option card, and the inclusion or exclusion of an (dement is controlled by the option card. Sets nl' variables must then be lurnished to correspond.

The 1'irsl case should contain all the variables that are used by the model. For sub-

sequent cases, only the variables that are to be changed arc input. Variables are stored in a single dimensional array called PL. They are stored by elements and ait1 printed out by element for each case run. .\ sample input element printout is shown in ApjKmdix B.

The model cards consist of a scries of different type cards that carry the costing logic. These cards (x/iform different functions, and column one of each card is used as a "key" to determine the Sfiecifie function of that card. The various types of cards and their function are described in Appendix A.

2.2.4 TUL COSTC I'HoGHAM. The COSTC program is a general cost model that acts as a data manager. It provides a printed-out array of the results of the cal- culations directed by the model cards. This printout is called the SAV matrix, and a sample printout is shown in Apixnidix C. It is organized in lines and columns, which are numbered and which are addressable by the model cards. A value "stored" in any element of this matrix may be used as a term, and manipuluted by certain types of model caids. The SAV matrix is dimensioned by the driver program, COSTC. The number of rows in the matrix corresponds to the number of lines containing cost values that arc to be printed out. It is limited only by the dimension statement and, in turn, core capacity. The current program is dimensioned for (i!)!) lines and 12 columns. A Kith column is used lor s . ..ining a given line. The number of columns in the matrix corresixmds to the number of columns that may be printed out. The program presets the SAV matrix to zeroes before the execution of a run. Terms are computed and added to a six'cific location in the matrix addi'essed by line and column number by the operative model cards. As an example of the operation of the matrix mul the correspondence to the model cards, reference is made to Appendix A, a listing of the input <leck, and Appendix C, a sample SAV matrix.

In Appendix A the first L-eard entry appears as follows:

In ApjK'ndix C, the SAV Matrix, ;in llu- first line, line a, in the first column will he found recorded the results of this calculation (the sum of rib ty|)e weights and complexity factor products).

As anoiher example of the relationship, Appendix A Jiov.:,

This translates as follows:

Fntcr on line 10, column I, of the SAV matrix the sum of line ä, column 3, line 'i, column 3, and line 7, column 3, multiplied by .20 and the value entered in line 113, column S, multiplied by two. This program thus provides visibility of computations and provides a high degree of programming flexibility.

The functions of the various types of model cards tux; described in ApjKmdix A, in- cluding the rules applicable to the use of each type of card. The cards are discussed in the order in which they appear in the printout in Apjxmdix A, except that all of the input oriented cards are grouped together and discussed first. The complete list of card types in the order in which they appear in the model deck, is B-eard; 1-card; 2-card; 3-card; F-card; blank-card; C-card; N-card; T-card; D-card; R-eard; P-card; /- ;ard; I.-card; and F-card. The input oriented cards are: F-card; H-cai'd; Z-card.

2.2.5 INPUT OKGANI/ATION, Figure 1 showed inputs organized as XAMFUST variables and Model Cards, As described above NAMFFIST variables are recorded on the NAMFFIST input cards. Model cards, in addition to providing the estimating logic in the form of CFHs, con'-ain what are called estimating coefficients, which were briefly mentioned in connection with Figure Ü. These appear as constants on a given input card but are, however, subject to change. A discus don of these so-called F-card variables and how they might change in value (giving them the effect of an iniAit variable) is needed to completely describe the organization of inputs. NAMFLIST variables arc subject to change with each study case, whereas the F-card variables do not usually change from case to case and usually change only as the result of additional cost research.

Revisions can be made in the above categorization, if need dictates, simply by chang- ing the F-card to indicate the variable name rather than a constant and by including the variable in NAMFLIST. It can be seen from this comment that the distinction is partially one of convenience describing the type of input card manipulation required

2.3. 1 i-'iHST L'NiT C'U.ST. Theoretical first unit cost is used as a means of esti- mating recurring m inufacturing costs. Manufacturing costs for the production quantities for which estimates are desired are obtained by learning curve projections against this theoretical first unit cost, first unit costs are estimated by a series of general CKHs that are used in a specified sequence to estimate major structural components: wing, horizontal stabilizer, vertical stabilizer, fuselage, nacelle, and landing gear. The computer program controls the repetitive use of the CKHs with the input data serving as the key to the structural elements and categories of cost that are estimated. Tables 3, 4, 5, G, 7 and 8 cross reference the cost printout, CKHs and model cards for the above structural elements. Operations such as subtotaling and the conversion of labor hours to dollars are handled within the program model deck.

The general CKHs that provide these estimates and the input requirement that is generated by iheir repetitive use, matched to the output shown, are discussed below. The discussion of inputs will provide a transition from the estimating output to the CKH structure ;uid a means of identifying the computational indices applicable to the general CKHs.

Detail fabricatioi, and subassemblv hours and material costs are estimated for each item listed, if th : structural component occurs on the aircraft being estimated. The CKH structure; pi ivides for the simultaneous evaluation of up to three different types of ribs, spars, anc covers with respect to these cost categories. The structural box major assembly hours subtotal is estimated by means of a series of CKHs as de- scribed.

Structural material costs are considered in two general classes: the cost of raw material for the fabrication of structural components and the cost of assembly hard- ware, which includes fasteners, seals, bearings, paint, preservatives and other

This CFH uses three types oi variables:

(1) Weights data (2) Complexity factors

The first two arc handlod as NAMK1.1ST variables and vary with Die airci'all dcHign. The third is handled Lhrough tile nvxlel card coiivcntinii wiUi values used based (ill analyses as described in Volume J.

Weights data and complexity tactors lor estimating detail i'abrication hours for ribs, spars and covers lor wings, horizontal stabilizers and vertical stabilizers and frames, longerons and covers for fuselages are input as shown in figure 20. As mentioned above, the estimating method provides for the simulUuieous evaluation of three diff- erent ty])es of ribs, frames, spurs, longerons or covers. Hibs and frames may be, alternatively, bulkheads. These com]xments may ap]X3ur in various combinations limited to the maximum of three types. The nacelle ;u"id landing gear involves sec- ondary structure only. They are included in figure 'J.G only to denote the overall computational sequence.

The remaining two inputs, reference cost per pound. 111'., :uul the weight scaling ex- ])onent, 1'., are entered on model cards. They may be changed In the program simply by changing the aipropriate F curd as discussed in .Section 2.2.3. They are subject to change if the subsequent acquisition and analysis of historical data indicates a more appropriate value. Hence they are not necessarily variables within the context of a given estimating problem. Currently available back-up data for referepce cost per jxmnd values appears in Appendix F.

Input Data Sources

The discussion in this section provides a map for locating the required program in- puts. With reference to Figure 20, weights data are obtained from the APAS program and the secondary structure weight estimating routines by a process to be described in .Section 2.4.2. Complexity factors are obtained from an appropriate complexity factor table. For primary structure detail fabrication labor, these are Tables t), 10, il, 12, 13 ;uid 14. Back-up date for complexity factors is given in Appendix G. Also located there is data that can be used to develop a multiplier for application to com- plexity factors i'or construction types involving machining with differing tolerance requirements.

The derivation of reference cost iK;r pound and weight sealing exponents is described in Volume I, Section 2. The values developed are summarized in Table 15. This table also serves to summarize the model cards where Equation 1 is used.

E. follows the same map as IIF.. A consistent finding of the cost research has been that the scaling of hours to weight is very nearly a constant with a value of approxi- mately 0.G7. E. values arc thus not listed in Table 15. This finding is discussed more fully in Volume I.

Sub assembly Hours

F. H - CC. (WF.) (WD ) 1 (11)

1 i i i

where

H subassemblv hours, secondary structure i

CC. a series of complexity factors corresponding to component type related to subassembly i

WF. a series of reference cost per pound values for secondary structure components related to fabrication labor

WD. the same series of weights as for detail fabrication

F. a series of weight sealing exponents for secondary structure components related to subassembly labor

Inputs

The inputs for these CERs follow the pattern established above:

(1) Weights data obtained from a supporting computer pi'ogram, the secondary structure weight analysis program.

(2) Complexity factors obtained from complexity factor tables.

(,1) Reference cost per pound data and weight- scaling exponents.

Separate input data are required for each structural element since the list of secon- dary structure components (and consequently the series index) differs with each element. Input data requirements are shown in Figure 29. The applicable complexity factors are obtained from Tables 25 and 2G, with back-up data in Appendix G.

The computer program provides for seventeen lines for secondary structure items for each of the six computational elements. Since the cost estimating relationships are general in nature, the listing of components is abritrary and governed only by a need for correspondence between the component index and the input data.

The reference cost per pound and weight scaling exponent values are shown in Tables 27 and 28 with their model card and back-up data location.

COMPONENT MAJOR ASSEMBLY (SECONDARY STRUCTURE) LABOR

This task involves separate estimating approaches for aerodynamic surfaces and fuselage - nacelles - landing gear.

A value of 0,77 is used lor (1 and is entered as an F-card coeiii- cienl. Sec Appendix 11, Page 11-1 for back-up data.

Raw material costs and scrapp:ige iaetors are categorized as NAMFFiST variables because they were i'elt to be more subject to change than the estimating coelTicients for labor, which were treated as model card variables. In line with this distinction their back-up data is given in a separate appendix. Appendix H.

STRUCTURAL MATFR1AL COST FOR SFCONnARY STRFCTFRF

CFR Form

A CFR of the following form is used:

G M WD (RMC ) (SF ) (17)

i i i i

where

M material cost for secondary structure components i

WD a series of weights for the secondar' structure components being estimated

G - a series of weight scaling exponents

RMC. a series of raw material costs per pound for each type of component estimated

SF. a series of scrappago factors related to the material and component estimated

This CFR is of the same form as that for basic structure material costs as a simplify ing convenience. It should be noted, though, that the terms RMC. and SF. take on different meanings in this case. In the ease of basic structure, the scrappage factor was defined in relation to type of construction, RMC values are derived from avail- able data, and the term SF is available for future development as a complexity factor.

2.3.2 HFCL'RIMNC; FHODUC TlüN COSTS BY STHFC'rUHAF FFFMFNT. 1 \ecurring production costs arc estimated for three alternate production quantities: the HDT&E, or flight test qiuuititics, and two alternate full scale production quantities. Figure 17, a printout of RDT&E production costs, illustrates the output format, which is the same for all quantities.

The calculation of production costs is a simple process of projecting first unit costs by me;uis of ;ui appropriate learning curve and applying labor rates to convert to dollars. The detailed first unit cost level of detail is used for this projection in order to provide adequate trade study insight. Subslaulions ol types oi material or con- struction c;m be evaluated from the standpoint of effect on learning and resultant

quantity costs. The explanation of the method which follows is based on the computer program with only one additional cquational form being added.

The /-card option is used lor learning curve projections, (See Appendix A for a dis- cussion of model card functions.) F-cards are used for conversion of hours to dollars, for cool-on-cost calculations ;uid for totaling. KDTKF costs :ind the re- maining recurring production costs are handled in the same way.

To illustrate (he- /-card option, the model card entry at ('Mlh, 1) will be used, 'lids is the calculation for recurring production costs for die Wing, Structural I'JOX, Ribs, Detailed Fabrication hours and appears as:

/;!;i5 i 29 ;n I i,N2 WNC; PN I WNC. pen WNC.

The / in the first column indicates use of the /-card convention. The numbers ;j;ä5 1 indicate the SAV matrix address at which the calculaton results are entered. The

number 29 si^rüries the use of THHM 2!) as ;ui equational form. 'Ilie numbers 31 1, whu-h constitute an entry in the i'irst saJjOckl lor entry of parameters, is the SAV matrix address where the previously calculated first unit cost of wing rib detailed fabrication labor is stored. The remaining entries are three additional parameters used in the calculation:

PN2 WNG The starting quantity for the calculation

PN4 WNG The ending quantity for b.o calculation

PCll WNG The relevant learning curve factor

The meaning of these parameters is determined by the equational form specified, I'KHM 29 in this case. TERM 2!) is of the following form:

where PI First unit cost

P2 - The beginning point of the projection

P-l The relevant learning curve factor expressed as a decimal fraction.

The computerized calculation procedure is embodied in the COh'TC program.

An example of a cost-on-cost relationship is

Procurement articles follow similar patterns that can be readily discerned within the model card structure. To illustrate, the sequence of model card calculations for the HDT&K summary that runs from F ü^O 7 to PG.38 8 is repeated for the first quantity of procurement articles in the sequence of model cards from F Ö40 7 to F G48 8.

The conversion of hours to dollar.1:' is a repetitive process that follows the procedures already described above. These calculations occur at (G30, 8), G31, 8), (G;52, 8), (033, 8), (G34, 8), and (G35, 8).

Complexity factors are used in the current methodology as a segment of an overall costing process. The costing process, as illustrated in Figure 35, can lie thought of as having basically three inputs: historical costs through the mechanism of estimating coefficients, hardware definition translated as size/weight, and hardware definition translated as complexity. These inputs interact within the costing relation- ships to produce the cost estimate. Definition of the hardware has the clem ait of size ;ind complexity. Defining these two elements is sufficient to provide a suitably unambiguous specification of the hardware. The complexity of any piece of structure is reflected in the material and the type of construction used. The complexity associated with a given material and construction technique can be symbolized by a numerical complexity factor.

The numerical complexity factors are developed from a detailed analysis of the candi- date structures and materials. The first step in this process is the selection of a nominal structural element that provides a model of the manufacturing approaches for that structure. This defines a baseline, which is assigned a reference com- plexity of one.

Other structural approaches using different materials and construction techniques are defined. The manufacturing processes for both the baseline and alternate structures are then identified and listed. From both historical and projected labor data, hours can then be assigned to the various manufacturing processes. This results in a number of hours being associated with each specific type of material and construction technique as a variation of the nominal structural element.

Appendix ('■.

For «.'ach typt' '>!' constrnction , a sketch defines the siK'cilics, such as mtraber of rails,

web parts, number of machined surfaces, number ol stiffeners, etc. A nominal si/.e

was defined to make the different design approaches to ribs, spars, a.nd covers com-

parable on a complexity factor basis. For each piece of detail structure, the manu-

faeturinK operations were iclentilied that arc. required te imunifacture each piece.

These included such operations as those shown in Figure 'M: saw set up, edge burring,

router set up, routing of cutouts, proeessing to speeifieations, identifying and in-

sj)ecting, etc. Where assembly was required, these operations were identified and

included clamping in place, hole drilling riveting, welding, identifying and inspecting,

etc.

Complexity factors for secondary structure are less well defined because distinctions

in 'ype of construction are not as well defined. For secondary structure, complexity

factors have been developed by analogy from historical data and by industrial engineer-

ing studies that evaluate the impact and relative cost effect of selected design alter-

natives. The secondary structure complexity factors art- oniained in Tables iM

and ;;.(). Fse of these tables requires selection of a suitable analog or dialogs as a

l>oint of reference for selection of a suitable complexity factor.

The use of complexity factors i.i the estimating process at the level of detail depicted

above provides a great deal of flexibility. New types of structure can be analyzed

from Ute sUmdjXMnt of impact on manufacturing processes and the resultant impact on

cost determined. Some anomalies occur, however, since the historical data

does not always confirm presupposed patterns of cost. The detailed study as to the

reasons for such ambiguity is beyond the scope of this study.

2. 3. G DFHIVATION OF FSTl.MATINU C'UK FFIC'IFN'TS. A summary of cost elements

for which, baseline coefficients were developed is shown In Figure 158. Historical

cost data was collected for each of the cost elements cf the matrix. 'This basic cost

data was normalized, where appropriate, by making use of the complexity factors.

'The construction and material type for each of the cost elements was identified :uul

the appropriate complexity factor divided into the baseline cost. The effect of this

procedure is to reduce all the data ix)ints to a common basis to which a complexity

factor of one can be applied.

Figure .'38. Summary of CFB CoelTicients.

(>nce the normalized data for the cost elements has been plotted on log-log paper, the problem becomes one of simply determining the line that can best represent the ad- justed data. The two basic parameters define the CEH line: the slope of the line and the intercept of the y axis where the value of the x axis (weight) is one pound. Based on a composite plot of all cost data and the results of previous research, in particular

Heferences 1,2, and 'A, a constant ex[)onentiaI scaling relationship was used. With the slope of the curves specified, each y intercept was determined by fitting the fixed slope line to the data available for each cost element. A cost plot showing the technique for the rib detail fabrication is shown in Figure 39. Back-up data charts

for each oi the CKHs appear in Appendix F, The curve fit line is not plotted on these charts since they are expected to change with the addition oi new data. Values used were determined by plots on work sheets.

2.4 PROGRAM OPFRATION AND INSTRUCTIONS

i'his section discusses additional considerations involved in the full set of trade study cost estimating computer programs. As the method is currently structured each of the programs depicted in Figure 1 operate indciKnideiUly, and data is l ranslciTcd nuuuially between them.

2. 4. 1 COMPUTER PROGRAM 1NTK GRAT ION. The elements of the estimating method have been designed to operate in a modular mode, as opjxjsed to being hard-wired, for two reasons: (1) Fach of the elements is in a state of development and changes in input/output are to be expected and (2) It was desired to have the capability of opera- ting the costing program Independent of the structural synthesis program, limited, of course, to those cases where the necessary input data could be provided manually.

hi the modular mode then, coordination of the programs is accomplished by means of a set of instructions covering input development, the preparation of input cards, and the set-up of the computer deck for the desired operation. Section 2. J provided the general instructions for input development ;uul identified input sources. Specific instructions for operation of the supporting programs and the transfer of relevant uij)ut data are given next.

'XTFKCuM is being used as part of the installation at AFFDL. it provides a simpli- fied procedure for making NAMKL1ST and model card changes. These are made at a deskside terminal that displays a card ;uul provides for a change in the card as a keyboard operation. rJTus capability is especially significant for maintaining currency in estimating coefficients as new data indicates a need for revision and for changes in the GFKs themselves.

:',.:'. COST MODKL COM I'UTKH I'ROCRAM MODULI-:

The computer program for the system cost estimating method is a module of the trade study program, as stated previously. This module uses SAV matrix lines 700 through 7111'. The number of lines used is kept to a minimum for computer efficiency and may be increased by a simple change in the DIMENSION statement in the COSTC program. The details of the computer program remain unchanged for system costing operation except that only a subset of the model card deck is used: that pertaining to the cards corresponding to the section described above. Input organization is simplified and is described in connection with the discussion of cost estimating relationships.

Additional material describing the system costing computer program module is cov- ered in Appendix K. This consists of a computer listing of input elements, the pro- gram module listing of model cards, a NAM KLIST variables dictionary, and a sum- mary of estimating coefficients, back-up data for which arc given in Appendices 1 and L. The NAMELLST variable dictionary serves as an input summary table in lieu of the individual input summary tables by cost category used for the trade study method.

A summary of the system cost estimating approach is given in the following sections for each of the major categories of cost. A complete description of CERs, the result- ing input requirements, input sources, and references to back-up data are provided. Tables are provided for cross referencing cost items as given in the output formats, the CER equations, and the model card locations. The step-by-step development of

The complexity factors und the weights are handled as NAAIFFIST variables. The esti- mating coefficients and the sealing exponents are enteret! as model card constants at the model card locations shown in Table -Fi. Back-up data for the complexity factors, estimating coefficients, and scaling exponent are provided in Appendix L, Figures L-14 through F-.'!U. Figure L-lti is blank (with the page reserved for later data), since for the pre.vr.', the horizontal and vertical stabilizer an-combined as the

Inflation is treated as shown for Manuiacturing Support, although for programming convenience a separate F-card is used for this calculation.

The term SAVj refers to the series of SAV matrix addresses called out on lines F75i through F7.1G. These represent the corresponding first unit cost estimates made by the trade study method. It is necessary to make certain that one or the other method is zeroed out. Use of the combined method is discussed further in Section 4.3.

■j'c.si r;usi- csiimalcs have lu'rii pci'lonncd lor cadi ol (he Iwo cslimalin^ mt'LhocIy u.sing' Ihi' cost model conipiilcr program and the i-csulls from runs of the supporting synthe- sis programs, in the ease of the trade study method. I'rinlouts from these runs have been used to illustrate the methods in the previous sections. This seelion describes the steps taken mid the information ^aUici'ed in setting up the demonstration runs. An evaluation from the standpoint of estimating results is provided in the Technical Volume, Results of the demonstration runs are given in Appendix M.

Tile B-.ls aircraft program was selected as the test case for both the trade study and the system cost estimating methods. Other candidates were considered but were not selected for various reasons:

The selecfion had to be limited to a Convair program since data collection ex- perience indicated thai access to data was a problem otherwise. Choice of the H-rjS was supported by the availability of results from a NASA-funded cost data study, Reference 5. The V-\ 1IA was a candidate, but the cost of collect- ing comparative actual data was beyond the budgetary limits of the study.

Data for the B-5K program were obtained from four general sources; (i) 15-58 Cost Data Study Report, Reference f»; (2) B-58 Cost History; (.'J) Actual Weight and Balance Report for B-58A (Bomber Airplane), FZW-4-Ü38, Reference G; and (4) other internal company data sources. The B-öS Cost History is a specific internal document prepared as part of the company's ongoing cost research.

The results of the trade study and system runs cannot be directly compared since they are set up in different time frames: the trade study method estimates historical costs using a composite, then year labor rate, whereas the system cost estimate is made in 11)74 dollars. The trade study method estimates labor and material separately, so that by applying the appropriate labor rate and material cost factor, economic escala- tion is taken into account. Some ambiguity occurs in the case of material cost, how- ever, since the historical data typically intermingles production material associated with structure and purchased parts associated with the functional subsystems.

The system cost estimating factors were developed from a data base that had been ad- justed to U>7Ü dollars. An inflation adjustment was applied to these results to convert to 1!J74 dollars. Going back to the 107 0 data base, or any intervening year, requires only a simple series of F-card changes. However, moving back to any earlier period .vould require a more comprehensive adjustment to the data base.

For the usual estimating situation, estimates will be made in the eurrcnt time frame, and comparisons of the results from the methods can be made. Making a comparison in the case of the B-58 would be time consuming and still not conclusive due to the difficulties in determining precise escalation adjustment factors.

The demonstration case as presently set up does provide a comprehensive test of both methods. An analysis of estimates and a comparison to actuals, both from the B-58 aircraft and other aircraft, at subsystem and detailed levels, has been accomplished and is reported in the Technical Volume. Verification of the estimating logic and de- bugging of the computer program have been largely accomplished. The demonstration case also served as a vehicle to coordinate the installation of the system at AFFDL.

4.1 TRADE STUDY ESTIMATING DEMONSTRATION RUN

The steps used in making this run are described below. They differ from the nominal procedure inasmuch as actual design and weights data were available eliminating the need for synthesis data and resulting in deemphasis on the demonstration of the design synthesis computer programs.

First Unit Cost Estimate

a. Obtained detailed weights data by review of the detailed weight statement contained in Reference 6.

b. Determined type of construction and material used for the basic structure from a review of Reference 5 and determined approximate weight breakdown.

c. Determined complexity factor by reference to complexity factor tables for detail fabrication and subassembly.

d. Prepared an input data summary similar to Figure 26 for aerodynamic surfaces and fuselage hardware elements for detail fabrication hours and similar to .?Lgure 27 for subassembly hours.

e. Developed design data required by Figure 28 from Reference 5.

f. Entered detailed weights data for secondary structure in a Figure 29-type sum- mary sheet.

Appendix B gives a sample printout of the input elements. This sample was taken from the B-58 demonstration run and may be referred to for the input values used for this test case. Appendix M provides the additional estimating results, in computer print- out form, which, when taken in conjunction with the other printout shown for illustra- tive purposes throughout this Handbook, constitutes a complete set of printouts. Table M-l gives the location of the output set.

4.2 SYSTEM COST ESTIMATING DEMONSTRATION RUN

The steps used in making this run are described below. In the case of the system cost- ing test case, sources for the required input data are not precisely determined so that the procedures described represent a typical case. Reference is made to Appendix K, which contains a printout of the. Input elements as used for the test case and a

4. 3 COMBINED METHODS OPERATION

The combined methods operation is limited to the substitution of basic structure first unit costs from the trade study costing method in the system costing results. The combined mode thus involves basically the system cost estimating logic as augmented by the substitution of certain trade study calculations: those occurring from F-cards

F751,4 through F756,4. The scries of terms (61, 9), (124,9), (173,9), (229,9), (280,9), and (314,9) serve to interconnect the two methods. If the combined mode is to be used, then the first part of the respective equations, i. e. , the part in front of the plus sign, must be zeroed out by an appropriate entry and the calculations produc- ing these terms must be activated from the trade study model card deck. Each of these terms is traced back through the calculations, the necessary model cards are activated by insertion in the input deck, the relevant NAMELIST variables are input, and the case can then be run as before. The terms involved are defined as follows:

(61,9) - Wing'first unit labor and material dollar cost (124,9) - Horizontal stabilizer first unit labor and material dollar cost (173,9) - Vertical (229,9) = Fuselage (280,9) = Nacelles (314,9) ~ Landing Cear

Li' these terms are substituted, then the recurring airframe production costs automatic- ally reflect the substitution. The system costing method then provides a detailed anal- ysis of basic structure costs, and detailed costs are provided either Hü a partial print- out of the trade study format or from the SAV matrix.

4.4 ABBREVIATED RUNS

Abbreviated or partial runs can be made in the case of the irade study cost estimating method. This is exemplified in the B-58 test ease in two ways: (1) Since the B-58 aircraft does not have a horizontal stabilizer, one of the six hardware elements modeled is omitted and (2) One production quantity, instead of two, is evaluated.

The elimination of the horizontal stabilizer is accomplished by removing the appropriate model cards:

a. Cards F-100 through F-150, the eight cards immediately preceeding, and the two cards immediately following.

b. Cards F-365 through F-390 and the two cards immediately preceeding and immediately following.

c. Cards F-507 through F-532 and the two cards immediately preceeding and immediately following.

The elimination of the second production quantity is accomplished by removing the following cards:

a. Cards F-475 through F-613, the immediately preceeding two cards and the following one card.

b. Cards F-650 through F-658, the immediately preceeding six cards and the following card.

The elimination from consideration of other hardware elements is accomplished by removing comparable sets of cards.

4.5 ESTIMATING ACCURACY

The demonstration runs give evidence of a fully operational cost model. A full assess- ment of estimating accuracy has not been attempted, however, in view of the fact that only one lest case has been identified and completed. Based on this case, a limited evaluation of estimating results is discussed in Volume 1, Section 6. In addition, however, a lew qualitative statements can be made regarding"the esti- mating accuracy that can be expected from the use of a model of this type.

171

Page 185: WEAPON SYSTEM COSTING METHODOLOGY^^ FOR AIRCRAFT … · method lor detailed cost analysis ol trudes-olT between weight, cost, type ol con- ... The principal author and project leader

The initial decision regarding liie level oi' detail at which to pursue the development and the concomitant acceptance of the state of data availability described as un- limited data (the idea tluit the expected future availability of data would be reflected in the level of detail estimated) limited the use of statistical estimating approaches, hi the form ol the model that resulted, input development is an important key to estimating accuracy. The experience of the user, the availability of expert judg- ment, the relevance of available analogs, the performance of experiments, and the results of special studies all are channels for improving input development, which in turn improves the estimating results.

Again with regard to input, the accuracy of the output of the supporting design synthesis and weight estimating programs is of great import. The overall accuracy of the methodology must be judged on the basis of the entire set of programs used.

In using a model of this type, and in fact, in any estimating process, accuracy is dependent upon the degree of product definition and the extent to which the product incorporates advanced technology, ha some respects these amount to the same thing: the application of advanced technology tends to make product definition more difficult, but product definition can lag for other reasons also. In this model im- proved product definition enhances accuracy by facilitating the choice of better com- plexity facto:', providing more accurate definition of materials and construction categories, and insuring a more representative choice of analogs. Dealing with advanced technologies reduces the accuracy of estimates because of data base limitations. This will always be true, but the use of a detailed estimating procedures permits a more precise focusing on the problem.

The current model provides credible estimates. It is felt, however, that develop- ment of the full potential of the model involves: (1) additional user experience; (2) additions to the cost data base; (3) continuing improvements in the supporting synthesis and weight analysis programs; and (4) development and incorporation of specific additional features in the cost model logic. The additional user experience will also, undoubtedly, provide feedback for model improvements and steps to augment the data base.
