Abstract

IN ORDER TO CONNECT THE LAND AND THE SEA FOR CARGO AND PASSENGER TRANSPORTATION, IT IS NECESSARY TO CONSTRUCT TERMINALS IN SUITABLE DISTANCES OF THE COAST. THE EXISTENCE OF SEA TIDES AND ACCESS TO AN ADEQUATE WATER DEPTH FOR THE SHIPS TO BERTH ON THE ONE HAND SEEMS NECESSARY FOR TERMINALS TO BE CONNECTED TO THE LAND, AND ON THE OTHER, THEY SHOULD BE FLOATING TO MOVE UP OR DOWN USING THE JACK-UP SYSTEMS. THE FLOATING SYSTEM IS PREFERRED TO THE JACK-UP SYSTEM DUE TO ITS SIMPLICITY AND THE OBTAINED EXPERIENCE. MOREOVER, THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS USED IN OFFSHORE STRUCTURES BECAUSE OF ITS PARTICULAR FEATURES. THE STRUCTURE USED FOR THIS PURPOSE IS T-SHAPED, WHICH IS FULLY BOLSTERED ON SPANS AND HAS RESILIENT BOLSTER ON ITS FLOATING SIDE. THE SURFACE IS MADE OF METAL SHEETS AND ITS INTERIOR ELEMENTS ARE OF TRUSS (DUAL-FORCE) PARTS, WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER IN A PYRAMID STYLE, IN ORDER TO FACILITATE MOORING AND SHIP OPERATIONS. IN ADDITION TO THE LATERAL LOADS SUCH AS WAVES, WIND, CURRENT, THE FORCES OF MOORING AND PIERS, THIS STRUCTURE BEARS THE DYNAMIC LOADS OF THE VEHICLES SUCH AS TRAILERS, TRUCKS, TANKS AND PORTABLE CRANES. IN ORDER TO MAKE THE STRUCTURE BULLETPROOF AND PREVENTING IT FROM SINKING, FOAM IS INJECTED INTO THE FLOATING PART OF THE STRUCTURES. AN ANCHORAGE IS DESIGNED NEAR THE BERTHS FOR THE USE OF MOORING SHIPS. THE STRUCTURE IS DIGITALLY ANALYZED AND PRESENTED IN A 3D MODEL.
