?Mean speed of a voyage across the Atlantic Ocean.
The author next considered the strains to which a ship is exposed, and
stated that he had before him the calculations for three of the
largest vessels, two of them of iron and the other of steel; and he
found, in the case of the iron, the maximum tension on the gunwale
during the greatest hogging strains likely to be endured at sea would
not exceed about six tons per square inch, while in the case of the
steel ship it is only about 61/2 tons.
