    I'm studying as a Civil Engineer and I must say naivety, overconfidence, miscalculation, and negligence are all parts of making disasters.

    A while back I read an article about the Vasa ship that said that part of the building mistakes on it were that 2 different companies built the left and right sides of the ship and their measuring standards weren't quite the same, so one side was slightly longer than the other, making the ship a bit twisted, which further added to its instability, beyond adding the 2nd gun deck without increasing the ship's draft, thus making it incredibly top-heavy as you mentioned here.

    That last one was chilling, wow, so sad! Never had heard of it before.

    Cutting costs has always led to problems :(

    I've been subscribed for ages. I have the memory of goldfish, so I can't remember since when, but it's been over 2 years. Glad to see you guys are still cooking.

    After showcasing an old warship. I believe it would be nice to have contents about Cruise Ships and their amenities and features, especially smallest to biggest, top 10 perhaps

    Those beams weren’t there for long term, they’re called shoring and reshoring to help support the concrete while it sets.
