One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Ship structural arrangements and strength members

Ship structural arrangements and strength members are the backbone of a vessel’s integrity, determining how loads are distributed and resisted. Mastering the types of arrangements (longitudinal, transverse, combined) and the functions of key strength members (frames, stringers, girders, bulkheads, decks, shell plating) is essential for analysing ship stability, fatigue and damage tolerance in the NUC CCMAS, NBTE and…
