Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory and Design of British Shipbuilding Dimensions. The measurements of ships are given in terms of Length, Breadth and Depth. While they are so often used by shipping people in stating the dimensions of a vessel, yet, owing to each of these terms being themselves measured in various ways, confusion is often caused and they are not always understood. It will, therefore, be advisable in this first chapter to explain the various points to which they are taken. Length. The length most commonly used is length between perpendiculars (sometimes called builders' length). It is generally denoted by B.P., and is measured from the fore side of the stem to the after side of the stem post at the intersection of the fine of the upper deck beams. (See Fig. 1). The measurement of length for the purpose of determining scantlings is also measured in this manner according to the Rules of Lloyd's Register, except in the case of a cruiser stem where length of vessel is to be taken as 96 per cent, of the extreme length from fore part of stem in range of upper deck beams to the aftermost part of the cruiser stem, but it is not to be less than the length from forepart of the stem to after side of stem post, where fitted, or to the fore side of rudder stock, where a stem post is not fitted. British Corporation measure the length from the fore side of the stem to the aft side of the stem post, taken on the estimated summer load-line, where there is no rudder post, the length is to be measured to the centre of the rudder stock.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past three centuries the ship has developed from the relatively unsophisticated sail-driven vessel which would have been familiar to the sailors of the Tudor navy, to the huge motor-driven container ships, nuclear submarines and vast cruise liners that ply our seas today. Who were the innovators and builders who, during that span of time, prompted and instigated the most significant advances? In the past three centuries the ship has developed from the relatively unsophisticated sail-driven vessel which would have been familiar to the sailors of the Tudor navy, to the huge motor-driven container ships, nuclear submarines and vast cruise liners that ply our seas today. Who were the innovators and builders who, during that span of time, prompted and instigated the most significant advances? In this new book the author describes the lives and deeds of more the 120 great engineers, scientists, philosophers, businessmen, shipwrights, naval architects and inventors who shaped ship design and shipbuilding world wide. Covering the story chronologically, and going back briefly even to Archimedes, such well-known names as Anthony Deane, Peter the Great, James Watt, Robert Fulton and Isambard Kingdom Brunel share space with lesser known characters like the luckless Frederic Sauvage, a pioneer of screw propulsion who, unable to interest the French navy in his tests in the early 1830s, was bankrupted and landed in debtors prison. With the inclusion of such names as Ben Lexcen, the Australian yacht designer who developed the controversial winged keel for the 1983 Americas Cup, the story is brought right up to date. Concise linking chapters place all these innovators in context so that a clear and fascinating history of the development of ships and shipbuilding emerges from the pages. An original and important new reference book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ship-Builders Complete Guide: Comprehending the Theory and Practice of Naval Architecture, With Its Modern Improvements The navy of England does not date its origin prior to the time of our Saxon ancestors. It is now, however, the best defence for our sea girt shores. The navy may indeed be considered as the natural strength of the British empire, nor need we apprehend any danger from foreign invasion while Britain retains the sovereignty of the seas. To ensure this important desideratum, the art of ship-building must receive that assistance from theoretical science, without which, foreign navies will ultimately excel us on our own peculiar element.

Download or read book The Rise Fall of British Shipbuilding written by Anthony Burton and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From modest beginnings, Britain rose throughout the nineteenth century to become the greatest shipbuilding nation in the world, yet by the end of the following century the British merchant fleet ranked just 38 in the world. The glory days of sail had given way to the introduction of the steam age. Traditional shipwrights had railed against new industrial methods resulting in the infamous demarcation disputes. Talented men, like Brunel and Armstrong, had always sought change and development, but too many shipbuilders were relying on old technologies. From building mighty battleships and extravagant ocean liners, the nation became complacent and its yards were eventually no longer as innovative as their foreign competitors. In the twenty-first century, British shipbuilding has shrunk to a mere fraction of its former size and has become almost totally dependent on government contracts.The popularity of and fascination with this subject has prompted a new edition of Anthony Burton’s successful book. With fresh images and a new, final chapter, the story of the rise and cataclysmic fall of British shipbuilding has been brought right up to date.
