Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the development of concrete ships from their inception in France in the mid-1800s through to their use as barges in the Panama Canal during the 1900s. It explores how materials such as iron, steel, and wood gave way to concrete, and the advantages and challenges of concrete shipbuilding, particularly with regard to buoyancy and overcoming shearing forces. The author analyzes the contributions of Dutch, Italian, and German engineers, and describes the innovations of the twentieth century, including the use of reinforced concrete, the development of cellular systems, and the construction of larger, ocean-going vessels. The book concludes by emphasizing the significance of concrete ships as a viable and economical alternative to traditional ship materials, especially in times of high demand and limited resources.
