Abstract

Wooden ship (small and big size) construction can be realized by one of the following methods:
1. the touching planks method (Carvel-method)
2. the overlapping planks method (Clinker-method)
3. the diagonal planks method,
4. the unwrapping plane and “patching” method,
5. the lamina (“thin plate”) building method, and
6. the combined (mixed) building method.
In this paper the classic touched panelling (Carvel) method, usually used in the Korčula wooden
shipbuilding “School“, is explained through ten building phases.
