A keel bracket is a structural component that connects the vertical keel and flat keel plates in a ship. It is usually shaped like a triangular plate and is located between the frames or floors of the vessel. For instance, during the construction of a ship, the keel bracket plays a crucial role in securing the keel plates to the vertical keel, ensuring the structural integrity of the vessel.
