Granddaughter of Titanic Second Officer: Titanic was sunk by a steering error
 A steering and because the captain decided to continue sailing rather than to stop the ship.It's also my personal understanding that the Titanic's rudder was too small, the rivets had too much slag in them which made them brittle, and because the ships owners wanted a grand staircase inside the ship rather than go with the designers' plans that were more compartmentalized.
