Tank Tests of the Effect of Rivet Heads, etc., on the Water Performance of a Seaplane Float, Special Report
A 1936 technical report from the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, credited to the NASA Technical Reports Server, documenting tank tests of a seaplane float. The two photographs show a scale model float with riveted panels and measurement markings, photographed in side and angled views against a plain backdrop, useful to a designer for sleek hull profiles and the rhythm of rivet lines on streamlined machined forms.
