President Roosevelt called it an "Ugly Duckling." Traditional naval architects said the welded design would snap in half. But in 1941, with U-boats sinking Allied ships faster than they could be replaced, America didn't need a pretty ship—it needed a miracle. This is the story of how an outsider named Henry Kaiser revolutionized industry and built the "impossible" fleet that won World War II.
[The Content Summary - SEO Rich] In this video, we dive into the archives to uncover the engineering secrets behind the Liberty Ship class. At the start of the war, building a single cargo ship took 244 days. Using revolutionary prefabrication techniques and replacing slow riveting with dangerous welding, American shipyards slashed that time to an average of just 42 days.
We analyze the "Kaiser Method," the massive risks taken by the U.S. Maritime Commission, and the incredible story of the SS Robert E. Peary—a ship built from the keel up in just 4 days, 15 hours, and 29 minutes.
