Naval architecture: a manual on laying-off iron, steel, and composite vessels
A technical manual by Thomas Henry Watson, published in London and New York by Longmans, Green in 1898, teaching shipyard draughtsmen and apprentices to lay off hulls of iron, steel, and composite vessels. The plates are line diagrams: half-breadth and body plans, waterlines, buttocks, frame and deck curves, all annotated with station numbers and base lines, useful for spare engineering linework and lettered grids.
