3103F.6.4 Deformation Coefficient (CD)

Los Angeles Building Code > 31F [SLC] Marine Oil Terminals > 3103F Structural Loading Criteria > 3103F.6 Berthing Loads > 3103F.6.4 Deformation Coefficient (CD)
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER

This accounts for the energy reduction effects due to local deformation of the ships hull and deflection of the whole ship along its longitudinal axis. The energy absorbed by the ship depends on the relative stiffness of the ship and the obstruction. The deformation coefficient varies from 0.9 for a nonresilient fender to nearly 1.0 for a flexible fender. For larger ships on energy-absorbing fender systems, little or no deformation of the ship takes place; therefore, a coefficient of 1.0 is recommended.
