🔍 Key Concepts

• Transverse framing vs. longitudinal framing – which system uses closely spaced transverse frames and which uses widely spaced ones with other members taking the load • Primary strength direction – along the ship’s length (longitudinal) vs. across the ship’s beam (transverse) • How girders, floors, and stringers share hull girder strength in different framing systems

💭 Think About

• Think about which framing system relies on many closely spaced transverse frames as the main strength members, and which system can spread those frames farther apart because other members carry most of the load • Ask yourself: in modern ship construction, which system is commonly used for large ships that need strong longitudinal strength along the hull? • Consider how the spacing of transverse frames changes when the ship’s main strength members run fore-and-aft instead of athwartships

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which framing system has frames running athwartships as the main strength members, usually meaning closer frame spacing • Verify which system supports strength primarily with fore‑and‑aft members (longitudinals/stringers), allowing wider transverse frame spacing • Eliminate any answer choices that are not standard framing systems used in ship construction
