Type your answer here... Thomas Andrews was the Ship builder. He didnt make the water tight chambers as high as they should have been in order to allow more space for the first class cabins. The ice berg hit a place where the chamber was supposed to reach but insted it flooded.

∙ 12y agoNo, he designed the ship based on what he thought the passengers needed and what by the law that in place at the time of the ship's building. The number of lifeboats the ship had was not based on the number of people the ship could carry but the tonnage of the ship. The Titanic actually had more lifeboats that it was required to carry. He was only on Titanic to try to find things he could improve and had no influence on the captain or how the ship was managed.
