Article type: Research Article

Authors: Rayner, L.W.A.

Note: [1] Paper read before the North East Coast Institution of Engineers and Shipbuilders, Newcastle upon Tyne, on 26th February 1960.

Abstract: This paper describes briefly the types of non-metallic materials used in warships; it gives a summary of the problems that face a warship designer when choosing materials and describes the latest trends. Apart from boats and small craft, non-metallic materials are mainly used for “fittings”, and items incidental to the hull construction. A section has been devoted to “paints”.
