Any help will be highly appreciated, drawings or pictures especially.

Re: Lewis Nixon and Flint & co. 1904 motor boats
Can anybody at least help or advice where to find informations about similar ships in this era?
Thicknes of metalsheets used for different ship dimensions, usual numbers of rivets per feet etc.
Is there something like textbook of destroyer (steam launch, autoboat:-) shipbuilding around start of 20th century?
if possible, available online.
