Without doubt the need to give a founded estimation of the remaining life span is needed. In the NEN 8700 and 8701 and the guideline of Rijkswaterstaat (RBK) a way to determine the structural reliability is given. The corresponding estimate of the remaining life span is based on but not equal to the suggested reference period of the loads. These...

Future-proof design of quay walls is an interesting issue in civil Engineering, because of the dynamic environment in which quay walls are operating. Designers are confronted with time-changing requirements such as larger retaining heights and heavier loads. However, a technical and financial analysis has revealed that the design of new quay...

In this thesis the impact of an earthquake on quay walls located at the Euromax terminal of the Port of Rotterdam is analyzed. A quay wall is a soil retaining structure where ships can moore and transfer goods. Seismic behaviour of two different types of quay walls are investigated and compared by performing a seismic analysis on the Euromax...

Ventspil Free Port Authority has commissioned the design of a new berth capable of hosting post Panamax vessels and having a retaining height of 18.5 m. In proximity of the quay wall two sewage pipes lay on the bottom of the Venta River’s bed, which need to be combined into one single conduit with a diameter of 900 mm. In proximity of the quay...

In this thesis, an investigation is described to the measured horizontal displacements of a quay wall in the Port of Rotterdam. This quay wall was built in 2003 to replace an existing jetty. A combined tubular wall was installed and some of the concrete jetty piles were reused as foundation piles for the relieving platform. Anchorage for the...

De aanleiding van dit onderzoek komt van het Ingenieursbureau van Gemeentewerken Rotterdam die een antwoord wilde hebben op de vraag: is het mogelijk om een kadeconstructie te ontwerpen die verplaatsbaar is. Door de kadeconstructie te demonteren wordt er bespaard op grandstoffen wat ten goede komt aan het milieu. Bij de huidige kadebouw wordt de...

De kaden bij de marine containerterminals in Noord-Westeuropa hebben een lage bezettingsgraad. De investeringen in de kaden leveren daardoor een laag rendement op. Als oplossing voor dit probleem is het combi-terminal concept naar voren gekomen in de voorgaande studie "Innovatief kade-concept". Bij dit concept worden naast containerschepen ook...

Bij het gebruik van een boegschroef bij aanleg- en afvaartmanoeuvres botst de boegschroefstraal direct tegen de kademuur. Een verticale kademuur remt de schroefstraal af en buigt hem om, waarna een alzijdige wandstraal ontstaat (d.w.z. een straal die in alle richtingen in een verticaal vlak voor de kademuur uitstroomt). Het uitstromen van deze...
