A Textbook of Laying Off: Or The Geometry of Shipbuilding is a comprehensive guide to the mathematical principles and techniques used in the construction of ships. Written by Edward Lewis Attwood and originally published in 1918, this book covers a wide range of topics related to shipbuilding, including the use of geometrical drawing instruments, the construction of curves and surfaces, and the methods used to lay out and cut ship frames. The book also includes detailed instructions for laying off the lines of a ship, as well as information on the design of ship hulls and the principles of stability. With its detailed explanations and numerous illustrations, A Textbook of Laying Off is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in shipbuilding or naval architecture, and a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
