TITANIC THE EVOLUTION

Titanic, is known as full Royal Mail Ship (RMS) Titanic, British luxury passenger liner  that sank on April 14–15, 1912, during its maiden voyage, route to 'New York  city' from Southampton , England, killing about 1,500 passengers  ship personnel. One of the most famous tragedies in modern history, it inspired numerous stories, several films, and a musical and has been the subject of much scholarship and scientific speculation.  In Titanic there were total  2,240 passengers were travelling and 705 passengers were there to survive the sinking of Titanic RMS, The Titanic RMS was designed by Thomas Andrews And he was the nephew off Lord Pirie and lord Pirie was the principal & owner  of the Harland and Wolff , Mr Andrews were habitually travelled on median voyages like oceanic and Olympic.  The Harland and Wolff was the first owner to  build  the Titanic vessels and before this  no one able to attempt  this big size of vessel to construct, this ship and it is  constructed on the land of Queen’s Island and its also known as the Titanic of quarter, in Belfast harbour. The Harland and Wolff have demolished the three existing sleepaways and build two new ones, This was the largest ever constructed up to that time to accommodate their work. The Titanic RMS construction was facilitated by an enormous gantry built by “sir William arrol & co. ”The construction of Titanic took about 26 months to build and mainly it was constructed in parallel and it was designed essentially as an enormous floating box girder and it also known as backbone and the frames of the hull forming the ribs. At the base of the ships, a double bottom 5 feet 3 inches (1.60 m) deep supported 300 frames, each between 24 inches (61 cm) and 36 inches (91 cm) apart and measuring up to about 66 feet (20 m) long. They terminated at the bridge deck (B Deck) and were covered with steel plates which formed the outer skin of the ships. Among the last items to be fitted on Titanic before the ship's launch were her two side anchors and one centre anchor. The anchors themselves were a challenge to make, with the centre anchor being the largest ever forged by hand and weighing nearly 16 tons. Twenty Clydesdale draught horses were needed to haul the centre anchor by wagon and this was  produced by “Noah highly & sons Ltd in this there were 15,000 workers were working for Harland and Wolff at the time. while construction of Titanic there were many difficulties were faced and the workers safety was fully not acceptable like hard hats, hand guards on machinery equipment and during the construction of Titanic ,246 injuries were there while working on this there are many workers who died like falling pieces of steels and just before the lunch of the Titanic a worker was killed because of falling wood.  Titanic was launched at 12:15 p.m. on 31 May 1911 in the presence of Lord Pirie, J. Pierpont Morgan, J. There were 100,000 on lookers. Twenty-two tons of soap and tallow were spread on the slipway to lubricate the ship's passage into the” River Lagan” while keeping with the White Star Line's traditional policy, the ship was not formally named or christened with champagne The ship was towed to a fitting-out berth where, over the course of the next year, her engines, funnels and there was a superstructure was  installed and her interior was fitted out. Although Titanic was virtually identical to the class's lead ship Olympic, a few changes were made to distinguish both ships. The most noticeable exterior difference was that Titanic ( the third vessel in class, Britannic) had a steel screen with sliding windows were installed along the forward half of the A Deck promenade. This was installed as a last minute change at the personal request of Bruce , and was intended to provide additional shelter to First Class passengers Extensive changes were made to B Deck on Titanic as the promenade space in this deck was there , which had proven a  unpopular on Olympic, and  it was converted into additional First Class cabins, including two opulent parlour suites with their own private promenade spaces. The À class restaurant was also enlarged and the Café Parisian, an entirely new feature which didn’t ever exist on Olympic, and also added. These changes made Titanic slightly heavier than her sister, and thus she could claim to be the largest ship afloat. The work took longer than expected due to design changes requested by Ismay and a temporary we have to take a  pause in work occasioned by the need to repair Olympic, which had been in a collision in September 1911. And after that the ,  Titanic been finished earlier, she might well have missed her collision with the  iceberg. The Titanic's sea trials were going to began at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, 2 April 1912, just two days after her fitting out was finished and eight days before she was due to leave Southampton on her maiden voyage The trials were delayed for a day due to bad weather, but by Monday morning it was clear that there are fair Aboard were 78 stokers, greasers and firemen, and 41 members of crew. No domestic staff appear to have been aboard.  And while trials Representatives of various companies travelled on Titanic's sea trials, like Thomas Andrews and Edward Wilding of Harland and Wolff and Harold A. Sanderson of IMM. Bruce Ismay and Lord Pirie were too ill to attend. Jack Phillips and Harold Bride served as radio operators and performed fine-tuning of the Marconi equipment. Francis Carruthers, a surveyor from the Board of Trade, was also present to see that everything worked and that the ship was fit to carry passengers, Or not. An  sea trials were  consisted of a number of tests and  handling the  characteristics, were carried out first in Belfast Lough and then in the open waters of the Irish Sea. Over the course of about 12 hours, Titanic was driven at different speeds, her turning ability was tested and a "crash stop" was performed in which the engines were reversed full ahead to full astern, bringing her to a stop in 850 yds. (777 m) or 3 minutes and 15 seconds The ship covered a distance of about 80 nautical miles (92 mi; 150 km), averaging 18 knots (21 mph; 33 km/h) and reaching a maximum speed of just under 21 knots (24 mph; 39 km/h).
