All the dimensional control data taken on individual pentagons prior to assembly, and subsequently after bonding and annealing of the large-scale acrylic plastic hull has been included in this report (Appendix A) to serve as a standard of comparison for (1) future operational large-scale NEMO hulls and (2) show the effect scaling up models has on dimensional deviations. The dimensional control data of the large-scale NEMO hull can be summarized here by stating that the wall thickness and internal sphericity of individual pentagons prior 84
