SFI Grouping System

INTRODUCTION

SFI-Grouping system
The layout of the following specification is based on the SFI GROUP SYSTEM. This group system has been
designed primarily to provide shipyards and shipping companies with a tool for the specification of ships and
an estimation of shipbuilding costs.

The classification system is divided into the following Main Groups:

0. General
1. Ship, General
2. Hull
3. Equipment for cargo
4. Ship equipment
5. Equipment for crew and passengers
6. Machinery main components
7. Systems for machinery, main
8. Ship common systems

Each main group (m.gp., one (1) digit) is divided into groups (gp, two (2) digits). Each group is again
subdivided into sub-groups (s.gp, three (3) digits).
Components specified twice or under different sub-groups shall only be delivered once.
