Dataset Overview
The U.S. Shipyard Asbestos Exposure Dataset (v1.5) contains 99 verified findings across 37 shipyards with 87 documented asbestos products. Every record is sourced to PubMed, NIOSH, EPA, NARA, or court dockets — no law firm marketing sites appear in the source list.
This is a purely academic and journalistic resource maintained for attorneys, journalists, expert witnesses, and researchers investigating occupational asbestos exposure in the American shipbuilding industry.
