Hulking

At Western Marine’s shipyard on the edge of the Bay of Bengal, machines shriek and sparks fly as workers turn hulking pieces of metal into gigantic ships.

The man was a huge hulking fellow in corduroys, but he did not look the villain by a long shot.

A hulking shape burst through the doorway and hurtled down the corridor, leaving a maelstrom of air currents in his wake.

The sand-hills have permanently disappeared from many parts of the coast and have been replaced by clay embankments, timber hulkings, and, during the pre-war years, by mass-concrete stepwork.
