Local and Global Responses of a Floating Bridge Under Ship–Girder Collisions

Abstract: The Norwegian Public Roads Administration is running a project “Ferry Free Coastal Route E39” to replace existing ferry crossings by bridges across eight fjords in western Norway. Since most of the fjords are wide and deep, construction of traditional bridges with fixed foundations is not possible. Therefore, floating bridge concepts are proposed for the fjord-crossing project. Since the floating foundations of the bridges are close to the water surface, the concern of accidental ship collisions is raised. Con… Show more

“…Fredriksen et al [4] dealt with hydrodynamic aspects related with a floating bridge, a type of structure that has been attracting much interest in Norway in the last few years. Two papers dealt with collision problems, one a ship collision with a floating bridge [5] and the other about the collisions of a moored structure with moving broken ice driven by current and wave [6].…”

“…Ship collision is also one important issue of consideration of the design. Ship collision on the pontoon wall and bridge deck girder have been investigated [23,24]. Various limit states, i.e., the fatigue limit state (FLS), ultimate limit state (ULS), serviceability limit state (SLS), and accidental limit state (ALS), should be investigated for the floating bridge design.…”

“…piers, piles and pile caps. There has been little focus on the analysis of bridge superstructures against ship collisions [10]. Due to the increasing height of modern ships, the possibility of ship deckhouse collision with bridge girders has increased significantly.…”

“…In addition, parts of the collision energy will be transferred into kinetic energy of the bridge. This could be estimated in a global analysis using force-deformation curves form the local analysis as described by Sha and Amdahl [10]. This global analysis is not pursued here.…”
