S.S. Great Britain
BCTQ conducted a full structural survey of this iron vessel lying beached in Sparrow Cove, Falkland Islands, including thickness measurements and an assessment of structural integrity of the main hull.
BCTQ developed proposals for the refloating and repatriation of this historic vessel to the U.K. Based on the results of the survey BCTQ prepared refloating calculations giving due consideration to the minimisation of hull stress levels during the refloating.
BCTQ has a continuing association with the restoration of the S.S. Great Britain with members of BCTQ staff serving on the Ship Committee, responsible for the restoration of the vessel..
