Excerpt from Structural Design of Warships
This work is based on a series of lectures prepared for a course in Naval Construction which was established by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1901 for officers of the United States Navy detailed to take this course in preparation for the duties as Naval Constructors. The lectures have been developed during the last thirteen years and, having now taken a fairly permanent form, it was' thought desirable to print them, partly for reasons of instruction, and partly in the hope that they might be useful to naval constructors and designers of warships in general.
The course in Naval Construction extends over three years and consists of lectures and design work. The general plan of the lectures will be here briefly outlined in order to show the place which the present work occupies in the course.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book on structural design for warships is a comprehensive guide to the materials and methods used in constructing armored ships. The author draws from a wealth of historical examples as well as expertise in the field of naval construction to demonstrate the evolution and effectiveness of different designs. Beginning with the introduction of iron and steel in shipbuilding, the author discusses the properties of various materials including wood, copper, zinc, and aluminum. From there, the book moves on to the assembly of these materials into a ship's hull, including descriptions of the processes used to build each part of the ship. The author also explores common points of structural failure and suggests methods to avoid them through uniform strength of construction and the use of redundant materials. Overall, this book thoroughly examines the complexities of warship structural design, offering valuable insights to students, naval architects, marine engineers, and anyone looking to expand their knowledge on the subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
