Which constraint affected 18th century shipbuilding strength due to seasoning limitations?

💡 Explanation

Unseasoned timber introduces internal stresses; Fast construction required green timber and resulted in shrinkage, inducing tensile stress and causing longitudinal splitting. Therefore longitudinal splitting risk increased, rather than reduced capacity, turpentine damage which deals with surface, or reduced maneuverability which relates to design and functionality.
