Quay Walls
Quay Wall is a general term used to describe a marine structure
for the mooring or tying-up of vessels, and for loading and
unloading of goods and passengers.
Wharf Type
Wharf type is a quay built parallel to the coastal line
This type can be created allied to the coastal line or with a
distance toward to the sea.
Homogenous Sea-bed contour line and parallel to the coastal line
This type is usually applied in general cargo port which is need a
spacious platform for handling activities.
The construction of wharf type falls broadly into two classifications:
1. quays with a closed or solid construction, and
2. quays with an open construction, where the deck is supported on
piles.

Dimension of Quay
Dimension of the Quay is depend on the number and types of ship which
will be served.
The Apron width is depend on the handling equipment used, the number
of train/truck lines.

Forces Acting on the Quay
a. Lateral force (ship impact in the quay wall, ship attraction,
Forces seismic)
b. Vertical force (structure dead load and life load)
where:
Rf = sea-current force (kgf)
S = vessel cross-section area inundated bellow sea water level (m2)
ρ = sea water density (= 1,045)
C = current pressure coefficient
V = current speed (m/s)
B’ = wide side cross-section area of the vessel bellow the water (m2)
Ship Attraction Force against the Quay
Based on Overseas Coastal area Development Institute-OCDI (1991), ship
attraction force against the quay will be hold-out by bollard or bits, and the
values are as follows:
In the bollard, the forces act horizontally, beside of the vertical forces as ½ of
those values.
In the bitt, the forces act to all direction.
For ship >100.000 ton, the attraction force should be calculated taking into
account the climate, sea current condition, mooring tools, etc.
