Maersk - World's Biggest Ship - Discovery Channel

Find out more about the Triple-E series of ships here: www.maersk.com/en/hardware/tri...
The team at Discovery follows the construction of the world's largest ever container ship as they push engineering boundaries to deliver the first Triple-E on time. This exciting preview gives a glimpse into the series.
In a dock yard the size of a large airfield, an army of engineers is building a ship like no other. it's longer than 4 football pitches and capable of carrying more than 18,000 containers. It's the world's largest ocean going cargo vessel.

As a proud American the comments posted here sadden me. In truth, I would like to apologize on behalf of my counterparts who have taken to name calling, insulting, and generally degrading the rest of the world because they have failed to evolve with the times. It is truly unfortunate that many millions of Americans have lost their jobs to outsourcing, but the response to that should be evolution of our economy, increased educational opportunities and job training to make us more competitive. The response should NOT be insulting parts of the world which are experiencing their own industrial revolutions much as the US did in the early 1900s. (And before you flame away, consider that I worked for over a decade as an auto mechanic and then returned to school for an engineering degree. If I can evolve, so can you.)

Amazing work. With Emma's hull halfway complete she needs to be moved. Behind her are two vessels which just got commissioned with their bottle bash and need to be towed to the outfitting pier so Emma's bow can be installed. To do that Drydock 2 has to be flooded and Emma has to be towed out and turned around so the two ships can leave Drydock 1. Once they are gone Drydock 1 is flooded and its gate is removed so Emma can be brought in then they drain it and build Emma's bow in Drydock 2. Once both sections are complete both docks will be flooded again and the two sections joined before the final flood and the bottle bash and Emma's first voyage out of Korea.

[@michaelhardin7455]

I have always wondered how do they fit all that cargo on the ships and have it equally balanced so that no containers fall off.

[@jacquesblaque7728]

Stowage plan is much more complicated than that, requiring much computer time. Once loaded containers receive much external cross-bracing to tie them into blocks. Stowage requirements: facilitate efficient offload, maintain ship stability/trim, separate incompatible cargoes, provide power to reefers and allow them airflow, place branding outboard (j/k there).

[@toqirahmad7650]

[@pleasetredonme]

EngineeringFun yea its dumb. it's as dumb as Danish people in this comment arguing Denmark contracted South Korea for CHEAPER WAGES. lol. They don't realize 29% of the world's ship tonnage comes from South Korea and that is not because of cheap labor but because South Korea has the largest steel industry in the world. In fact, ship builders are not minimum wage workers. They are high paying highly educated field in Korea. Average Korean shipbuilders have higher wage than European or American shipbuilders. These Danish people don't realize South Korea and Japan build thousands of 800,000+ tone ships

Do Danish have Aegis-class destroyers??? I don't think so. This ship was built by South Korean technology. It was outsourced to Daewoo by Maersk, by giving Daewoo specifications of what Maersk wants from their new ship, because Daewoo is reckoned as the most advanced shipbuilder in the world.

Yeah, either they aren't counting scrapped ships (or forgot to include the term "currently active"), or they forgot to specify "cargo ships". Either way, it's misleading.
