The experience in the design, construction, and operation of concrete vessels is also examined. Future trends and potential applications of concrete vessels are presented. The historical review and operational experience reveal that concrete is an ideal material for ships and vessels because it is economical, durable, water tight, easy to repair, excellent seaworthiness, and less affected by fire and explosion. The growing sophistication of prestressed concrete design and precasting construction techniques should improve confidence in the use of concrete and enhance prospects for the full utilization of its potential in many types of future concrete vessels.
