The rapid expansion of trade has led to fast growth of handling of goods in many ports. The ports are the catalysts of development of trade and this will result in large future effects. The increase of ship numbers and sizes will challenge ports in every aspect. Ports have to adapt to the upcoming changes by increasing capacity in every dimension. Quay walls are one of the most essential components of port infrastructure and with growing volumes of cargo and increasing vessel sizes, the demand on these structures is increasing. Efficient transfer at the quay wall interface is required for the commercial and operational success of any terminal or port. This paper comprises many options for creating extra depth in front of quay walls. Not all presented options have been used in practice. |
