About 2 Hours, he was about 30 minutes off.

three hours
The Titanic's ship designer was Thomas J. Andrews, a young man of just 36 who was considered a genius designer. The company that built the ship was called Harland and Wolff, which was based in Belfast, Ireland. The company still exists today, but no longer builds passenger liners.Thomas Andrews traveled on the Titanic's maiden voyage, making notes and observing improvements that would need to be made before future voyages could be made. After the Titanic hit the iceberg, he was one of the first on the scene to survey the damage. Upon learning that the ship was doomed, he retired to the smoking room and sat motionless in a chair. He would not survive.
Thomas Andrew was the designer of the Titanic. The reason why Titanic was thought of as unsinkable was because there were 16 watertight compartments. So even if a disaster occured with the Titanic it would have stayed afloat for some time - a couple more hours (in this time passengers could have been rescued by other ships). BUT Thomas Andrews reduced the height of the compartments to make more space in the first-class rooms so when it hit the iceberg it sunk a lot faster than it would have done. Overall, if he wasn't so fussed about the first class passengers' accommodations the Titanic possibly WOULDN'T have sunk and even if it DID many more people would have survived.

Thomas Andrews was making modifications for the third Olympic-Class vessel which had already been planned to be constructed. His enhancements, based on observations, were how he designed Titanic from the template of her predecessor, the Olympic.
No one knows, but many believe that he did indeed choose to go down with the Titanic because he knew that there would be little to no chance of getting into a lifeboat. Eyewitness reports say that Thomas Andrews was last seen walking the decks, advising passengers to get into the lifeboats, and even throwing chairs and other objects overboard, as to give others a better chance at survival. After this, he went into the First Class smoking room, and stared at the painting above the fireplace with his life vest was on the table next to him as the titanic sank
Thomas Andrews.Mr. Thomas Andrews designed the Titanic. Mr. Bruce Ismay, the owner of the White Star Line, approved of the design, as well as the name.Ismay started the idea that the ship was "unsinkable". This was because of the double bottom, meaning that something would have to break 2 layers of steel, and the water-tight compartments; rooms that would hold (and lock) water to prevent it from spreading throughout the ship.
well he would happen to be thomas andrews.......

The black gang down in the boiler rooms saw the water breaching, but the first confirmation that Titanic would sink was when Thomas Andrews verified it to Captain Smith at 12:25 in the morning.

No one ever bought the Titanic because of the fact that many people made it by hand. Thomas Andrews, the head of Harland, and Wolff design department, designed the Titanic. From 1908- 1909, over 15,000 Irish shipyard workers built the ship. Many workers died young because they would fall from hights while building the boat and sadly die.
Titanic was laid down on March 30,1909 The idea for the Titanic was born during a dinner party in the summer of 1907. Lord Pirrie and J. Bruce Ismay came up with a plan to build three huge ships, each would be bigger and more luxurious that Lusitania.The first ship would be called Olympic, the second, Titanic, and the third, Gigantic.Work began on the Titanic on March 31, 1909.
The reaosn the Titanic sank is beacuse of the ship hitting the iceburge. There are many reasons why Thomas Andrew the builder of the ship is at fualt here. the first is beacuse he rudeced the height of the titanic and also there were about 3 million rivits but they used bad rivits so if thomas would hade sugeested they used better ones then we would not be in this.
No, he did not survive. In fact he had no intension of saving himself, as it would mean taking the life of someone else who would not be able to escape.
to show you a very important thing that happened to the titanic.
