Its actually simpler to build the ship with 20 sections and multiply all costs and weights by the ratio of the two sizes. you also want to extrapolate DR, which is more complicated, because I can think of several valid ways of doing that. On the other hand, DR doesn't vary that much between sizes, so it doesn't matter nearly as much.
