I am a former engineer on the NS Savannah and am planning a scratch build. I was able to find templates for the bulkheads and keel. What I am looking for is deck fittings, cranes and other details and measurements to scale down.
 
have fun going thru these.

Thanks to enlightening me on what is The NS Savannah.
I checked and found that:
The NS Savannah was the world's first nuclear-powered merchant ship, launched in 1959 as a signature project of President Eisenhower's "Atoms for Peace" initiative. Operating from 1962 to 1972, it served as a combined cargo-passenger liner designed to demonstrate the peaceful, commercial use of nuclear energy. It is now a National Historic Landmark.
 
Thanks David for the info. Although I was able to locate most of those drawings there are a few that will definitely be helpful
