🔍 Key Concepts

• Shell plating arrangements on a ship’s hull (how the plates overlap or meet) • Differences between overlapping vs smooth/flush outer surfaces • Trends in modern shipbuilding: welding, hydrodynamics, and fuel efficiency

💭 Think About

• Think about which type of plating gives the smoothest outer hull surface and why that might be preferred today. • Consider how welded construction has changed hull design compared to older riveted ships. • Ask yourself which arrangements are more typical of older wooden or riveted steel ships versus large, modern, welded steel vessels.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options involve overlapping plates and which provide a smooth, even surface. • Consider which arrangement best supports welded joints and good hydrodynamic flow (less resistance in the water). • Eliminate any arrangements you associate mainly with traditional or historical construction methods rather than modern commercial ships.
