System of construction

1-Transversly system of construction

This system is a series of closely spaced frames. This system comprising frames, floors and
long. girders. The system is suitable for small ships such as
Tugs fishing vessels-The system is supporting transverse and hydrostaic pressure loads.

Q1:Where, floors, inverse frames, web and ordinary frames , and girders?

2-Longitudinally system of construction

This system is a series of closely spaced longitudinal stiffeners. This system comprising
longitudinal , floors and widely deep transverse frames. This system saving weight, give
adequate longitudinal strength. This system is applied for long ships where, acting bending
moment is dominant loading. It is not applied for G. Cargo ships.
Tankers, Container , passenger ships are adopted
Q2:Where, floors longitudinals, web, and girders?

3-Combined system of construction

This system has both advantages of the above systems. The deck and bottom are longitudinally
stiffened, while sides are transv. Stiffened.
Q3:Difine advantages of each system and its applications and causes?
