[[Shipbuilding|Construction]] depends on the material used. When steel or aluminium is used this involves welding of the plates and profiles after [[Rolling (metalworking)|rolling]], marking, [[Machining|cutting]] and [[Bending (metalworking)|bending]] as per the [[structural design]] drawings or models, followed by erection and [[ceremonial ship launching|launching]]. [[Adhesive bonding|Other joining techniques]] are used for other materials like [[fibre reinforced plastic]] and [[glass-reinforced plastic]]. The process of construction is thought-out cautiously while considering all factors like safety, strength of structure, hydrodynamics, and ship arrangement. Each factor considered presents a new option for materials to consider as well as ship orientation. When the strength of the structure is considered the acts of ship collision are considered in the way that the ships structure is altered. Therefore, the properties of materials are considered carefully as applied material on the struck ship has elastic properties, the energy absorbed by the ship being struck is then deflected in the opposite direction, so both ships go through the process of rebounding to prevent further damage.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Prabowo|first=A.
