Internationaler Buchtitel. In englischer Sprache. Verlag: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 130 Seiten, L=152mm, B=229mm, H=8mm, Gew.=200gr, Kartoniert/Broschiert, Klappentext: Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III SHIPBUILDING IN UP-TO-DATE SHIPYARDS SHIPBUILDING as an art has long become wj subordinate to the science involved in the industry, while handicraft skill?not to speak of " rule of thumb" methods?has been largely superseded by mechanical operations and processes of almost mathematical exactitude. The primary, if not the chief, interest in the modern shipyard may therefore be said to centre in the designing or " drawing office," where in the first instance the technical qualities and conditions of design of each vessel are determined. These are according as the vessel (merchant ships mainly are here referred to) may have to be for swift mail and passenger service, for moderately speedy and large cargo-carrying service, or possibly for a combination of both functions, as exemplified in the modern "intermediate" class of ocean steamships. Of course, each of these divisions embraces a large number of possible craft deviating from the general type in respect of form, structure, and mode of propulsion, according to the place and character of service intended. High-speed, river, or channel service; light-draught, pioneering work in undeveloped parts of the world; and vessels large and small, in which sails only, or possibly oil, gas, or electric in place of steam engines, are to be the motive power?all these are possible demands with which the naval architect and shipbuilder must deal on occasion. With the general elements of design tentatively determined?and, of course, in this the owners or their technical advisers guide the shipbuilders a good deal?the lines on which the vessel must be built are drawn out on a small scale. Afterwards the model in wood is prepared, although in some cases, especially in America, builders prefer to make a model serve right off as...<
