Abstract

The paper describes defects which developed in the lap joints of elliptical drums in Yarrow type boilers fitted in certain vessels of H.M. Navy. The cause of the defects is discussed, and also the means which were adopted to overcome them. It also describes in detail the work carried out at Garden Island, Sydney, in H.M.A.S. "Brisbane", in repairing the defective lap joints. Micro-photographs of sections of the plates are included, showing the development of cracks.
