Safety of ships is of major importance when approaching a port and berthing at a terminal. Continuously increasing ship sizes raise the pressure on proper design of new waterborne infrastructure, but also on safety and risk assessment methodologies when applied to ships of the new generation for existing infrastructure. The chapter introduces international accepted approaches on how to design waterborne infrastructure (especially port approaches and related maneuvering areas) for ensuring safe ship navigation and maneuvering. Moreover, basic methods and guidelines of safety and risk assessment used for this purpose in the maritime world are presented.
