🔍 Key Concepts

• Transverse framing system vs longitudinal framing system in ship construction • The primary role of transverse frames and what structural members run perpendicular vs parallel to them • Which members are specifically associated with longitudinal strength rather than supporting transverse frames

💭 Think About

• First, picture a transversely framed ship: which direction do the main frames run, and what kind of members normally support them? • Look at each option and ask: does this member typically run along the length of the ship or across the beam? How would that affect its role in supporting transverse frames? • Which listed member is more characteristic of a longitudinal framing system than a transversely framed system?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definitions of frames, stringers, girders, and longitudinals in basic naval architecture terms. • Verify which items are primarily longitudinal strength members (running fore‑and‑aft) rather than transverse support members. • Check which three options can reasonably be visualized as helping to brace or tie together transverse frames in a transversely framed hull. The remaining one is your best choice.
