This circular is intended to point out the need for special consideration whenever it is proposed to use steels other than ordinary ship steel or specially approved steels in hull construction. It also points out the need for recognizing that fittings, etc. attached by welding to any part of the ship's structure generally tend to share the stress bourne by that part of the structure.
