Titanic Reashearch

Titanic’s weight is 46,000 tons also it had 29 boilers and burned more than 650 tons of coal every day. Titanic is 882 metres long that is almost a kilometer long. This is how wide it is 92’ wide. Titanic is quite tall 175’.

The biggest cause of the Titanic sinking is because, they were pushing the Titanic to go at 25 knots so there will be proof of Titanic being the first vessel in the world to reach New York in record time. Suddenly disaster struck, they were heading right for an iceberg. The Captain turned the ship but it hit the iceberg. She was designed to not sink only if the 4 apartments were filled with water but 5 were. Titanic was doomed.  

The iceberg struck the starboard side of the ship. It was expected that there was going to be a huge hole on the hull. The hole was somewhere about 12 square feet. The Iceberg did not struck the hull also buckled the plates damaging a sequence of compartments.

Titanics captain name was Edward Smith or Captain Smith. He was born 27 January 1850 and died at the age of 62 in the Atlantic ocean sailing the Titanic. There has also been a statue of him in England.

The purpose of making Titanic was to beat the world record to reach new york and also so people return to their loved ones or be on a vacation. Also that country would like to have build a massive ship in fact that was the biggest moving thing in that time.

They were heading for New York also they had chossed a long course. Many people wanted to return to their beloved ones like the captain, he was retiring to return to his wife. Again an important person have chosen to ride the Titanic, they were I think queen and king maybe and they were eager to return to their people.
