My source doesn't specify, but I suspect that it was some of the internal framing and similar stuff based on how the Brits built Dreadnought so quickly. Some of my references show the building slip before the formal keel-laying and it was strewn with partially assembled frames that just need to be craned into place and then riveted together. Typically, if built by the shipyard, the engines, boilers and other machinery, were built on a totally separate schedule from the hull so I really have no idea how their construction times related to that for the hull other than the obvious. It also depended on if the shipyard typically installed them before or after launching.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:37, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
