偶现在买了此书的PDF格式电子书，里面是扫描图片，需要进行OCR识别、校对，然后翻译。本人水平有限，下面是尝试翻译的一点介绍和目录：
This book was not written for specialists looking for the latest arcane developments in structural engineering; rather, it was written for the average boatbuilder (amateur or professional), mechanic, marine surveyor, serious yachtsman, and naval architect. The Elements of Boat Strength is intended to be an easy-to-use reference for calculating reliable,practical, and solid scantlings for boats of differing types and service. (Scantlings are the sizes, shapes, materials, and weights of the structural components of a boat.)
这本书不是为专家在结构工程中寻找最新进展的奥秘写的；相反，它是为平常的造船的人（业余或专业），机械，验船师，认真的游艇驾驶者，和海军建筑师写的。船强度的元素希望是一个易于使用用来计算不同类型、系列的船的可靠性、实用性、合理尺寸的参考。（尺寸包括船的大小，形状，材料，和结构部件的重量。）
