Abstract:Two methods of building a hull in ferro-cement are described. The history of ferro-cement construction, the properties of this material, and design considerations in its use are discussed. Cost comparisons are made with the more common materials employed in the construction of small craft.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
