Summary
| Description |
Clinker built iron plating on the lower hull of the SS Great Britain. Although used on the lower hull of the Great Britain, clinker building wasn't a common choice for long. Although strong, it required a tapered (i.e. expensive) liner to be fitted beneath each plate to fit closely to the frames.
