How much damage was done to the Titanic?

Answer 1

Serious enough. The plates were buckled (popped rivets) for a length of 258 feet.

That was enough to compromise five compartments with an extra three feet leaking into a sixth.

Answer 2

The iceberg which it collided with caused several of the plates on the starboard bow to buckle. The pressure exerted cracked off the rivets, thus letting the plates separate and unsealing the hull. This led to many of the watertight compartments filling; more than the ship was designed to allow.

Answer 3

An iceberg breached the hull, then the boat filled with water taking the ability to float, sinking. During sinking, the weight of the boat cause it to snap in half when the other half was under water.

Answer 4

The titanic hit the iceberg and it puntured the side water started pouring in it flooded the first 12 floors in 3 minuits and people started evacuating fast . After 3hours of suspense and lots of cring some people comited suiside the boat finaly split in half and sunk and when it hit the ocean floor it split in half

I hope that answerd your quetion xD

Answer 5

Well after it hit the ice burg it left a gash the whole length of the ship so much damage was done. Apparently the brackets they used were not the ones they intended to use on the original design so if the brackets were stronger like the ones in the original design this may have prevented the gash and if there had been more lifeboats they could have saved everybody.

Answer 6

The iceberg that hit the RSM Titanic created several small openings inn the hull. Modern scanning has shown that the opening in the hull only about 12-13 square feet (1.1 - 1.1 m2) in total. These damages was approximately 10 feet (3 m) above the bottom of the ship.

Answer 7

The iceberg tore through 5 watertight compartments in the lower levels of the ship. Titanic was designed to stay afloat if 4 compartments were breached, but the iceberg went through one too many

Answer 8

The titanic was hit on the side of the boat and was flooded and it was because they tried to avoid it. If they slowed down and bumped the front they might not of sinked.

Answer 9

The impact of the iceberg popped the rivets between the plates and the water breached thru in a series of openings that ran along her starboard side for 258 feet.

Answer 10

During Titanic's collision with the iceberg, the impact popped rivets and buckled hull plates in a line that went 358 feet along the starboard side near the fore.
