Abstract :
Through the overall physical model, the pier and beam slab wharf structure and big platform wharf structure influence on ship mooring conditions are tested. The results show that different wharf structure has certain influence on ship movement, mooring force and impact force. Due to the middle void space of pier and beam slab can buffer the wharf apron water action on the ship, which is good for improving ship mooring conditions, the pier and beam slab structure is proposed for the project.
