Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history and science behind steel and iron construction, with a specific focus on comparing steel and wrought iron for use in shipbuilding and boiler-related applications. The author provides robust experimental evidence to demonstrate the viability of steel in these contexts, while also acknowledging that iron has applications where it is preferable. The author also delves into the corrosive effects of saltwater on both steel and iron and discusses the challenges of combining these metals without sacrificing structural integrity. The information in this book would be invaluable to engineers, shipbuilders, boilermakers, and anyone with a professional or academic interest in metallurgy, particularly as it relates to shipbuilding and naval architecture.
