building a miniark

it might sound strange but i'm serious about it

currently I'm designing a boxshaped, slightly rounded at bow and stern -ark like boat

this is to be build out of Al and will have a size of 30 foot in lenght by 10 foot in width an height. A cabin will be placed on top. the build starts in june so i do need my plans/skills to be perfect before that

I have been reading a lot of "howto's" and have a mainidea about the stucural build

starting from 11 frames a plate is welded on the exterial with a finishing plate around that.Inside a third plate will be placed that is filled with pu (hole in it for excess) closed and sealed again with a fourth plate above all that.

I live in europe and I'll try to put everything in your measures.

My question is atm if you know of any models/plans that exist around the same idea or if there is readingmaterial I need to go through to assure a good and fast build (have 4 months of vacation and 10 times the space required)
