Merchant Ship Construction By H.J. PurseyWritten especially for members of the Merchant Navy studying for the various grades of certificates. Most of the work of explanation is done by drawings and only the most common methods of construction are described, so that the subject is adequately covered by a very concise text. The book is divided into five sections which give the construction, connections and uses of the various parts in ordinary ships and in oil tankers, the survey of ships and testing of materials, shipyard practice and a series of definitions. Oil tankers are described in somewhat more detail than is usual in this type of book, in order that those who sail in such ships may be able to obtain a really practical knowledge of them, beyond the present examination requirements. The greatest contribution is undoubtedly the numerous perspective drawings, which are carefully arranged so as to face the descriptions of the parts they illustrate - an arrangement which has obvious advantages.Sailors are neither engineers nor draughtsmen and many of them have great difficulty in interpreting the conventional plans and elevations usually found in books on ship construction. The perspective drawing shows the part of the ship as it actually appears to the eye of the observer.

A must for all students and those of us who need a little refreshing now and again.' Nautical Magazine, August 2001'a very accessible book that makes the reader aware of the many changes in ships and shipyard methods occasioned by technological developments and, in particular, the computer.

It's about how a ship is built rather than how it is designed and starts with the basics on welding methods and steel characteristics and goes on from there.It's interesting to compare this book with Reed's Shipbuilding in Iron and Steel from 1868. The multitude of building methods used in 1868 have been narrowed down to an optimum of a few.Also in 1868, although a similar audience was addressed, Reed describes how and not why something was done. With Eyres's book there is the opposite which is where one could be critical. There seems to be a lack in some places of describing how certain manufacturing processes are performed e.g. Insuring the fitting of plates to frames, errection process etc.

Also I found Muckle's Naval Architecture had a better description of the different framing systems.Nevertheless a very good terse book.
