Description: "A summary of the information a designer needs to specify the fiberglass materials and scantlings for commercial, pleasure or military boats, power or sail, up to 100 feet in length. This book offers a technically sound, yet relatively straightforward alternative to a rule of thumb approach to design. The author describes the advantages and disadvantages of alternative materials and structural configurations and summarizes considerations in their selection. The chapter on construction is valuable to the designer who needs to choose alternate methods of tooling and quality control when specifying the production process. There is valuable data presented in charts to aid in the decisions for varying structural loads, safety factors, deflection and vibration limitations Step by step design examples are helpful to the designer with limited fiberglass experience or a builder working only with a basic knowledge of structural design." There is a name written in upper right hand corner of the second free sheet, and I've shown that in the photos. Otherwise, the book is in very good condition. Please see photos 8
