Which structural weakness can result when curing green timbers within a stacked sailing vessel hull?

💡 Explanation

Twisting increases because restrained shrinkage during curing induces springback forces within the planking through a mechanism called restrained warping. This occurs as moisture gradients develop across wooden planks; therefore warping produces distortions, rather than uniform shrinkage and structural failures.
