🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between a butt joint and a seam in shell plating • Direction of shell strakes (fore‑and‑aft rows of plates) on a ship’s hull • How plate joints look when plates are arranged in a staggered pattern

💭 Think About

• On a real hull, where would the ends of two plates in the same row (same strake) meet—along the ship’s length or across it? • In the illustration, which arrows point to joints that run across the length of the vessel rather than along it? • Compare the joints at the sides with those on the bottom: which labeled line clearly shows the end-to-end meeting of two plates in one strake?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure the joint you pick is between plates of the same row (same strake), not between two different rows of plates. • Confirm that the joint is transverse to the ship’s length (a short, vertical or crosswise line), not a long longitudinal seam. • Verify that the line you choose is clearly marking the edge where one plate stops and the next in line begins, not a frame or stiffener.
