The Titanic was held together by three million rivets.

@DaveStevenson I think I remember that one of the flaws was that the rivets were iron and susceptible to rust.

@raysam363 some of them were iron and some of them were steel. There was a fire in one of the holds that weakened the plates.

@DaveStevenson In either case, there was a lot that went wrong. Still it is interesting to learn.
