SS NORMANDIE PROBLEMS WITH THE PLANS

[Ivan Lopez]

Hi everyone!

I have various questions. I'm going to explain shortly.

1.-I have a navy plan's for SS Normandie(1935), but they have a quite distorsion, how can I keep it out? I have been working with photoshop and with the tool(deformación de posición libre), I don´t know the English name, something like: free tool of deformation, I think. The problem is that maybe this tool is quite freehand.

2.-How can I translate the information of plating plan into a 2D profile view of Normandie? I think that the lenght of the steel sheet is easy because I only need to count couples in the keel, but how can I know the real vertically lenght?

Kind Regards from Spain

Iván.

Hi!

In addition to the second question I'm going to add one photo.

This is one part of the plating plan for Normandie



I think that the limited between every steel sheet are the lines with 3 inclinated lines, with a number, in this case, almost all lines have a 25, this referes to the riveting of the hull, if I not wrong. The question is, how I can know the real lenght and widht of every steel sheet? The lenght I think is easy because I can count couples in the keel, but, what happens with de vertically lenght?

Kind Regards,

Iván.

The Burning of ‘Normandie’

On February 9, 1942, the SS Normandie — arguably, the most beautiful ocean liner ever built — caught fire while being converted to a troopship, having been seized by U.S. authorities and renamed US…
