Shield Volcanoes are made mostly of fluid lava flows. Flow after flow pours from a central summit vent. It builds up and turns into what looks like a warriors shield. Some of the largest volcanoes in the world are shield volcanoes. Some have diameters of 3-4 Miles and are 1,500 to 2,000 feet high. The Hawaiian islands are composed of chains. :) ;P
