🔍 Key Concepts

• Welded vs. riveted construction and how each affects hull weight and smoothness • What happens to tensile strength at a welded butt joint compared to the original plate • How welding changes stress distribution and potential stress concentrations in shell plating

💭 Think About

• For each option, ask: "Is this something welding is especially known to improve compared to older riveted construction?" • Think about the surface of the hull: would welding noticeably change frictional resistance in the water compared to other methods? • Consider whether welding can truly preserve the full tensile strength of the original plate at the joint, or whether the heat-affected zone might change that.

✅ Before You Answer

• For each choice, compare it specifically to riveted joints, since that’s the usual alternative in exam questions. • Ask yourself if any choice sounds too perfect or absolute (for example, claiming 100% of something). • Verify which effects of welding are well-documented advantages (weight, strength, smooth exterior) and which effect might be overstated or not realistic.
