The objective of the fender system upgrade at a raw sugar offloading terminal was to replace the dock’s existing antiquated and damaged fendering system with a new and more effective fendering system. This improvement provides the means to preserve, protect, and extend the useful life of the existing dock; provide greater protection of facility’s structural integrity; allow for safer cargo ship berthing and protection of vessel hulls; and improve water quality. This dock facility serves as a berthing, mooring and loading/off-loading facility for bulk sugar vessels. Over time, the size of bulk sugar vessels has increased, creating greater kinetic energy demands on the existing fendering system and making a berthing overload more likely. GHD performed structural condition assessments of the dock, performed berthing analyses and design for the design cargo vessel. The structural concrete repairs and replacement fender system were designed to be installed within the short periods available between cargo vessels calling at the dock.
