TITANIC TRAGEDY
-
Nature of system
From the research carried, it was concluded that the ship was going too fast in an area known to have icebergs.
Incompetence from the crew as icebergs warnings were unheeded and so multiple warnings were not communicated.
Climate caused the formation of icebergs and the tides sent the icebergs southwards towards the titanic.
The binoculars which were supposed to be used as lookouts were locked up the aboard the ship and so no checks were made.
The steersman took a wrong turn and this led to the reverse thrust being reduced and affecting the ship's maneuverability.
The iron rivets were too weak and they easily ripped apart during the collision allowing water in the ship.
