Ship Structural Beam

Primarily used as the spine of a ship, Structural Beams are made of a highly advanced weave of steel and plasteel. Additional components regulate shielded electrical conduits, coolant lines, and atmospheric ducts and vents. Structural Beams are strong enough to take a direct hits from most ship to ship weapons.

Due to their cost, it is cheaper to use Ship Hull for bulkheads and armor.

A 1x1 wall segment costs 16 Steel, 4 Plasteel, 1 Component to build and takes 27 work to construct.

Has 1000HP and is mostly flame resistant up to 1000C!

While cripplingly expensive, using powered Structural Beams is a good way to ensure your ship never suffers from overloaded or shorted circuits when the grid is connected to anachronistic power supplies, like batteries or low tech power generators. Especially when handing Capacitor Arrays.
