What have people learned from the sinking of the titanic?
to build ships better o.o
How much was it to build the Titanic?
probably around $300,000 at that time which would be $20,000,000 today!!
How do you build a model of the ship Lusitania?
You just picked the second most common civilian ocean liner in the world; after the Titanic. Any and all hobby stores, as well as on line, will carry a plastic model kit of either the Lusitiana or the Titanic...if you want to "scratch build one" Taubman's Plans" carries the drawings (plans) to build them too.
How much money did the Titanic cost to build?
In 1912, it cost $7.5 million US dollars (using the US Department of Labor Inflation calculator, that would be roughly equivalent to $174 million in 2015).
Why didn't they build a second Titanic?
Actually they built 3 Olympic-class liners. There were 3 ships of the same design known as the Olympic class. The 1st was Olympic, the 2nd was Titanic and the 3rd was Britannic. It does take a long time to build ships like this but the Olympicc and Titanic were built side by side with Olympic started three months before Titanic so that the shipbuilders could move from one ship to the other as soon as they finished one stage. The completion of Britannic was delayed by the sinking of Titanic, so that safety modifications could take place. It was the largest of the three, two feet wider than the Titanic.
