A radial floating ice deflector (FID) was developed, designed and constructed for a cable ferry crossing in northern Manitoba, Canada. The purpose of the FID is to protect the ferry from future floe impacts. In this paper, the concept development process including the conceptual design of the FID is presented, the problems such as floe - FID interactions, design ice load and design constructability arising from the conceptual design are discussed, and the solutions for the problems are introduced. At the end of this paper, potential applications of the structural system reflected by the FID are discussed and recommendations are made for the design and construction of future similar ice control structures. |
