Which outcome occurred when shipwrights introduced diagonal bracing during 18th-century ship construction?

💡 Explanation

When diagonal bracing was introduced during construction, the method distributed load more evenly throughout the hull because timber frame would resist shear and bending forces during dynamic loads. Therefore reduced hogging/sagging results, rather than increased flexibility,decreased cargo capacity,or elevated center of gravity, which contradict structural reinforcement.
