Suitable for students, professionals and those working in shipyards, supervising ship construction, conversion and maintenance, this title covers each core operation and provides detailed understanding of the key ship construction steps and techniques. It includes the advanced developments in computer-aided design and manufacture.
Ship Construction, Seventh Edition, offers guidance for ship design and shipbuilding from start to finish. It provides an overview of current shipyard techniques, safety in shipyard practice, materials and strengths, welding and cutting, and ship structure, along with computer-aided design and manufacture, international regulations for ship types, new materials, and fabrication technologies. Comprised of seven sections divided into 32 chapters, the book introduces the reader to shipbuilding, including the basic design of a ship, ship dimensions and category, and development of ship types. It then turns to a discussion of rules and regulations governing ship strength and structural integrity, testing of materials used in ship construction, and welding practices and weld testing. Developments in the layout of a shipyard are also considered, along with development of the initial structural and arrangement design into information usable by production; the processes involved in the preparation and machining of a plate or section; and how a ship structure is assembled. A number of websites containing further information, drawings, and photographs, as well as regulations that apply to ships and their construction, are listed at the end of most chapters. This text is an invaluable resource for students of marine sciences and technology, practicing marine engineers and naval architects, and professionals from other disciplines ranging from law to insurance, accounting, and logistics.

Professor George Bruce has over 40 years of experience in shipbuilding, including senior roles in facilities development, research, and innovation. He has acted as a consultant to governments, shipbuilders, other marine companies, and suppliers across the world as well as contributed to national and international committees, steering groups and associations across the industry. He recently retired from Newcastle University where he taught and researched ship production, ship repair, and project management. He continues to teach and consult privately. Keith Hutchinson has over thirty-five years of experience in ship design and naval architecture, shipbuilding, and ship conversion. He has held senior roles in the design of a wide variety of ships, having previously worked as a researcher in ship design. He also had shipyard experience in construction and repair. He serves on a number of professional committees.
