APPENDIX.
CALCULATING INSTRUMENTS.
The instruments to which references are made in Chapter IV. as
having come into use in some of our leading mercantile shipyards by
which the calculations undertaken there are rendered greatly more
simple, and are more expeditiously made, seem not to be generally
known amongst shipbuilders, and as they undoubtedly save much
of the labour and time of calculation, without any sacrifice of
accuracy, illustrations of them are here given, together with brief
notes of their construction and use. For anything, however, like a
satisfactory account of the mathematical principles on which these
several instruments are based, readers must consult the authoritative
sources to which references will be made.
