The ships with metal plates on their side were introduced in the 20th century. They can take on heavier payloads and that makes the fit for merchant and warfare purposes. In warfare, they are harder to sink than the predecessors which had wooden hulls.
Ships that have metal plates on their sides are typically referred to as metal-hulled or steel-hulled vessels. These plates serve as the primary structural components and help to provide stability and strength to the ship's hull. Additionally, the metal plates help to protect the ship from external factors such as waves, collisions, and corrosion.
Yes they did have mirrors but they were just polished metal plates. These plates were usually brass.
Rivets are used to join metal plates by passing them through holes in both overlapped plates. The ends of the rivets are then hammered over, flattening the heads, which prevents them from pulling back through the hole.
In the 13th century soldiers began to strengthen their protective mail. They used metal plates to protect the places on their bodies that were exposed despite the mail chains.
Metal was needed to build ships, planes, and tanks; so, individuals had to wait until after the war for new consumer goods made of metal. There were even scrap drives to collect metal to be recycled into armaments.
