Structural Design of Warships is a comprehensive guide to the design and construction of warships, written by William Hovgaard and originally published in 1915. The book covers the principles and practices of naval architecture, with a particular focus on the structural design of warships. Hovgaard begins by discussing the general principles of ship design, including the selection of materials, the calculation of loads, and the design of hull forms. He then goes on to explore the specific requirements of warships, including the design of armored hulls, the placement of guns and other weapons, and the use of watertight compartments. Throughout the book, Hovgaard provides detailed mathematical formulas and diagrams to help readers understand the complex engineering principles involved in warship design. He also includes numerous case studies and examples drawn from real-life warships, providing insights into the practical challenges of designing and building these complex vessels. Despite its age, Structural Design of Warships remains a valuable resource for naval architects, engineers, and historians interested in the design and construction of warships. Its detailed technical information and historical context make it a fascinating read for anyone interested in the development of naval technology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
