Excerpt from Naval Architecture: A Treatise on Laying Off and Building Wood, Iron, and Composite Ships It is believed that this volume will be found to contain nearly all the problems in Laying Ofi' which occur in actual practice on the mould loft floor; and, in addition thereto, a number of problems which, while not met with in practice, are yet valuable as exercises to strengthen the student's knowledge of the subject, and are often set in examinations to test that knowledge. I am indebted to Mr. G. Crocker, of Devonport yard, for assistance in preparing Chapter VII., which is devoted entirely to the consideration of a difficult class of these problems. Mr. J. Logan of Chatham yard has also kindly assisted me in the preparation of Chapter X., which treats of Laying Ofi' iron ships of war. In endeavouring to discuss the details of shipbuilding within the limits of this work, want of space has rendered it necessary to consider only the operations carried out on the building slip, prior to launching.
