Abstract:

This is Part II of a two-part report on a year of investigation into the compressive strength of ship hull girders. The report covers stiffened mild steel plates with ab 3 and bt 50. Seven tests were conducted on panels and grillages loaded in axial compression in various combinations with transverse membrane compression and normal presure. In addition, a three-bay girder was tested in pure bending. Author
