Trieres were highly standarized and they had pre-fabricated components ready to be assembled. On the punic Marsala warship they found painted letters on the surviving strakes that pointed to pre-fabrication. I'm meaning that separate teams were kept shaping just some concrete components and, afterwards, they were transported to the shipyard, were the actual ships were assembled.<br>
