The '''ship structural beam''' is a [[ship]] part that connects all other parts, transmits [[power]], and hosts the [[ship cryptosleep casket]]s.  
+
The ship structural beam is a part that connects all other parts, and hosts the [[ship cryptosleep casket]]s. Requires construction skill level 5+ and can not be built under a roof (at least 5 out of the 12 squares it occupies must be uncovered).
−
 
 
−
== Acquisition ==
 
−
Ship structural beams can be constructed once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. Each beam requires {{Required Resources}}, {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work, and a [[{{P|Skill 1}}]] skill of {{P|Skill 1 Level}}.
 
−
 
 
−
It cannot be built under a [[roof]], that is at least 5 out of the 12 squares it occupies must be uncovered. However, a roof can be constructed afterwards.
 
−
 
 
−
== Summary ==
 
−
Ship structural beams allow the building of [[ship cryptosleep casket]]s. Each beam can support up to 8 caskets. They can also connect other ship parts together, though are not required to do so.
 
−
 
 
−
== Analysis ==
 
−
At least one beam is required to host the ship cryptosleep caskets. In order to conserve resources when building the ship:
 
−
* Keep as much open space for caskets. Only 1 tile needs to be connected to the rest of the ship. Using both tiles of the width will waste a casket spot, which is relevant if you are planning to send more than 7 colonists up to space.
 
−
* Directly connect as many of the ship parts to each other as possible. The [[ship reactor]] in particular has enough surface to connect all the other ship parts together. Unless terrain is a restriction, there is no need to place beams for any other ship part.
 
−
 
 
−
Like the other ship parts, you can activate the [[ship reactor]] before the rest of the ship is completed. This both saves on [[raid points]], as material gathering and construction adds to [[wealth]], and limits what has to be protected during the raids.
 
−
 
 
−
Beams are also necessary if ship caskets are wanted for uses outside of the ship building, such as using its auto-eject feature to store colonists.
