Notes
  • Significance: The 1000 Ton Forging Press became an essential element of World War II ship repair and building activity; representative of the shipbuilding and repair machinery installed in the central industrial area at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard during the Second World War. The 1000 Ton Press was used to bend, shape and straighten steel beams in the fabrication and assembly of the structural components of ships. The Press was situated in the Shipfitter and Welder Shop (Building 460) where large steel plates and structures were formed to make elements of hull, superstructures and other structural components of ships.
  • Survey number: HAER WA-116-B
