First, Harold Bride, who was glad to get a job on the new ship, was working with another partner at the radio room in one of the Titanic’s decks. It says on page 19 of chapter two…

The Titanic was a cruise ship manufactured in the 1900s that was said to be "unsinkable" However it sank due to many design flaws and material failures. The cause of the titanics sinkage was due to the hull of the titanic colliding with the iceberg which ultimatley caused a brittle fracture within the hull steel. In order for a brittle fracture to occur there has to be three important factors a material or object must encounter,which are a high sulpher content,low temperature and a high impact…
