∙ 14y agoA good question. there is some evidence the Titanic was fabricated with Ryerson steel. The steel magnate J.T. Ryerson was among the victims of the disaster. Ryerson once had a big plant in Jersey City, since closed. Needless to say, The Titanic disaster marked the end of their involvement in shipbuilding steel- Ryerson did not have shipyards but did supply structural steel to them- as in the case of the Titanic. Ryerson was also associated with Elgin Watches.

∙ 7y agoNO. The hull was made of 1 inch thick mild steel plates. These were connected in seams by triple riveting within the central 3/5ths length using mild steel rivets, and double riveted using wrought iron in the bow and stern across the main seams. However, since the exploration of the ship it has been foudn that the iron rivets had 5 times more slag in them as would normally been acceptable. This was to cause the fixings to be come more brittle - These were used because of the impending time scale running out and a lesser quality (one stage below that specified in the construction drawings) were used to catch up. The remainer of the ship was deecked out with wood, glass some plaster decoration in lounges and carpeting for the interia roomes .

Yes 78.9% was made of wood. As the density of wood is lower than the density of water. Steel was also part of the exowear.
