Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Wood Ship Construction Board Emergency Fleet Corporation, for use in its classes in Wood Shipbuilding. This text on wood shipbuilding was prepared by W. H. Curtis, Port land, Oregon, for the Education and Training Section of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. It is intended for the use of carpenters and others, who, though skilled in their work, lack the detail knowledge of ships necessary for the efficient performance of their work in the yard. Sea-going vessels are generally built according to the rules of some Classification Society, and all important construction and fastening details have to be passed upon by the Classification Society under whose inspection the vessel is to be built. Due to this fact, requirements may varv in detail from types of construction here explained. It is hoped, however, that this book may be helpful to shipbuilding classes and to individual men in the yard.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wooden Ship-Building These rules stipulate the kinds and dimensions of materials that must be used for each principal part of hull and equipment, and also the manner in which the parts should be put together; and as the rules are based upon results of actual tests made by practical shipbuild ers and owners all over the world, it is evident that both builder and owner have every reason to adhere to them.

Excerpt: ... which are opposite each other, these stanchions being heavily bolted together. Between decks, in the same bulkhead, stanchions are shown on but one side of the planking, the lighter construction here being due to the fact that the water pressure, should the hold become flooded, would be much less at the top than at the bottom of the bulkhead. If there were no decking laid on the lower tier of beams to stiffen the bulkhead at this point, then it would be necessary to extend the stanchions on both sides to the deck above. To insure water tightness two thicknesses of tarred felt are laid between the courses of diagonal planking, care being taken to properly break joints. The border coamings are calked in the usual manner. In general, the fastening will be as shown in the figure. The diagonal planking fastening, which is not shown, consists of standard boat spikes. Each plank should be well spiked not only at the ends but to each stanchion on one side. Obviously it would be impossible to spike this planking to stanchions on both sides. These bulkheads are generally faced toward the expected source of water pressure, hence, bulkheads forward of midship would be faced forward and those aft of that point would be faced aft. The term "face" as here used is taken to mean the side of the bulkhead opposite the deck beam against which it is built. The bulkhead in Fig. 105 would under this rule face to the reader's right, and it will be noticed that the single stanchions between decks are on the back side. Solid log bulkheads, such as that shown in Fig. 106 may be put down without the extra heavy border timbers, or coamings, which have been shown in the figure, though it may be considered the best practice to use these heavy coamings as...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ship-Building in Iron and Wood The question, however, whether ships with broadside guns, or ships with Captain Goles's revolving turrets, are to be preferred, still remains unsettled. It will perhaps be found that each of these classes will prove useful in a sphere of its own, and that what ever success may attend Captain Coles's ships, a considerable, if not the largest portion of our future fleet, must still consist of ships with broadside guns. It has been assumed by the advocates of turret ships, in their arguments in their favour, that in revolving turrets alone can guns of very large calibre be used; but it is submitted that this is not necessarily the case if the guns in the broadside of a ship be placed on a traversing platform worked by mechanical appliances; and it may be remarked, that though guns worked on board ship in the way here suggested might not each have individually the same extent of angular traverse as the guns in revolving turrets, yet as all screw ships have to some degree, by judicious management of the helm and the screw, the power of revolving almost on their own axis without going ahead, this objection is very much obviated. It must not be forgotten, also, that the ship to carry a turret, to prevent her being sunk or set on fire, must be as thoroughly protected as the ship to carry broadside guns and though possibly she may be built with her sides of a less height out of the water, yet for a sea-going vessel this advantage has many counter balancing evils.
