I am prolific in my questions today so here goes my third question.
Once the hull was finished and the deck levels were being constructed, I assume that the sequence was to finish each deck level starting with the lower letters, and proceeding up through Deck A and then the Boat Deck was constructed last, is this correct?
Does anyone know the order of deck construction, or was it as I have just surmised? Was there a schedule written out for the construction sequence on Titanic? I imagine certain structures had to be finished before others could be started.
So then, would all of the rigging and funnel shroud lines have to wait until the structures and the deck planks were laid before the rigging could be attached?
