3103F.5.5 Passing Vessels

California Building Code 2016 (Vol 1 & 2) > 31F [SLC] Marine Oil Terminals > 3103F Structural Loading Criteria > 3103F.5 Mooring Loads on Vessels > 3103F.5.5 Passing Vessels
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
When required in Section 3105F.3, the sway and surge forces, as well as yaw moment, on a moored vessel, due to passing vessels, shall be established considering the following:
  1. Ratio of length of moored vessel to length of passing vessel.
  2. Distance from moored vessel to passing vessel.
  3. Ratio of midship section areas of the moored and passing vessels.
  4. Underkeel clearances of the moored and passing vessels.
  5. Draft and trim of the moored vessel and draft of the passing vessel.
  6. Mooring line tensions.
The passing vessel's speed should take into consideration the ebb or flood current. Normal operating wind and current conditions can be assumed when calculating forces due to a passing vessel. Either method of Kriebel [3.12] or Wang [3.13] may be used to determine forces on a moored vessel. Kriebel's recent wave tank study improves on an earlier work of Seelig [3.14].
