ABSTRACT:
The hull and bulkheads of vessels are constructed from a plurality of rectangular, in plan, curved steel plates. The plates are rolled to a slight arc of a circle the axis of which is parallel to the longer dimension of the plates. The plates have a mid-plate recurve to which are welded girders with the recurved portion parallel to the long side edges of the plates. The plates on the shell of the ship are arranged with their long edges longitudinal. The long edges of adjacent plates are joined by butt welding as are the shorter edges. Preferably the plates have widths of 4 to 20 feet and radius of curvature of 20 to 100 feet.
