BEAMS - How to locate them

[@genojoe3176]

Kroum, obviously, your modeler has amazing talents!

Thanks for another bit of light on how these things were and came to be. Until the beginning of the Iron Age, they were the space planes of their day- enormous, expensive, and going where few had ever been- and ships were there to serve the purpose. Have a safe trip as always!

Thankyou.

Thank you for another informative video! Your comment about the lack of fasteners to carlins and ledges shown on models and drawings was something I had never considered. They would be just as visible as the deck beams fastenings. The drawing shown at time 3:20 shows deck beams with lodging knees on both sides. I don't recall ever seeing a configuration like this. Was this a unique vessel?

Very nice and interesting video AGAIN. Thank you Sir!

I want to remember reading a premise that the "western" shipwrights had better access to compass timber, which made them more likely to use nees, which allowed reducing the scantling for ledgers and purlins and carlins and the like which were then optimized for deck support. All of which closed up the "hull girder" (a concept not formed until about a century or more later).

Wouldn’t the deck fastenings be bunged with wood plugs? The only thing visible would be the caulking seams along the plank edging , at the but ends, and around deck openings. All those dots are kind of silly.

I have a question regarding showing planking butts at 1/96 scale: A 6" deck plank is only 1/16 of an inch wide. I am showing no deck planking butts. Does this seem reasonable? I could upload a photo if it would be helpful. Thank you in advance, and thank you for another fact backed video!!!!!
