Synopsis

Master the essentials of modern ship structure with a practical, work-ready guide. This classic one-volume treatise covers the design and construction of steel vessels from the raw materials to the finished ship, including upkeep and repairs. It emphasizes clear explanations and practical methods, aligning with Lloyd’s rules and real-world shipyards.

The book explains how hull strength is achieved, discusses both longitudinal and transverse stresses, and examines each hull part from purpose to forces and construction.
