The paper presents a view on selected problems concerning application of steel sandwich panels to marine structures. Such problems connected with specificity of thin- skin laser- welded structure are varying in topics beginning from micro-scale properties of laser- welded T-joint through the joining of sandwich structures together up to connection and integration of such structures with a classical single-skin structure
