Scott, I'm back on this again. How is the conning tower welded to the pressure hull? Is it a butt weld? Thanks Ted

Scott, Lot of great information here, it will take me a little time to digest. I have a descent drawing of an IXC from Kohl and Niestle, but the print is extremely fine. Your info will flesh out what I can't get from the drawing. You mention the ribs (tee frames) are 200x11, do you know what the dimension of the tee flange is, I can see them on the drawing but they are very small compared

I am looking for information about the type of steel used in the pressure hulls. I am conducting pressure analyses on uboats to determine ultimate strength. In particular type IXC class uboats. Equivalent US Specs would be great. Need material properties. tlhebert
