FOREWORD 0.1 This Indian Standard (Part V ) was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 8 February 1980, after the draft finalized by the Ports and Harbours Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council. 0.2 A great need has been felt for formulating Indian Standards relating to various aspects of water front structures. These Indian Standards IS : 4651 pertaining to planning and design of ports and harbours structures are being formulated in various parts. Part I of the standard covers site investigation, Part II earth pressures, Part III loading and Part IV general design considerations. This part cover layout and functional requirements. 0.3 This standard outlines some of the desirable technical characteristics of ideal ports and harbours and is intended to provide some guidelines to the planners and designers who may be required to select a specific site, within the general locality specified, and develop a new or an existing port and harbour. 0.4 In the formulation of this standard due weightage has been given to international co-ordination among the standards and practices prevailing in different countries in addition to relating it to the practices in the field in this country. 0.5 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test? shall be rounded off in accordance with IS : 2-1960*. , The number of sign&ant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. 1. SCOPE 1.1 This standard ( Part V ) lays down functional requirements for the planning and developing of commercial ports and harbours and gives a general *Rules for rounding off numerical whxs ( revised ). 3 IS:4651(PartV)-1980 recommendation for the layout of the following harbour and operational facilities: a) Navigation channel, b) Harbour basin, c) Piers and wharves, d) Storage areas and sheds and storage of hazardous/obnoxious cargo, e) Open storage area, f) Other functional and operational buildings, g) Roads and port railways, and h) fire protection measures. 2. TERMINOLOGY 2.1 For the purpose of this standard, the definitions given in IS : 7314-1974* shall apply. 3. SELECTION OF HARBOUR SITE 3.0 For selection of site of ports and harbours the following factors need consideration. 3.1 Access - Direct access with existing means of internal communications and dispersion such as rivers, highways, canals and railways is desirable. Where topography at sites contiguous to inland communication is not favourable, cost of providing connection to such facilities should be balanced against savings in the cost of developing remote sites. 3.2 Size and Depth - Adequate size of area and sea front, inshore of breakwaters, if any, and depth without excessive dredging should be available to accommodate expected traffic. There should be room for future expansion. ' 3.3 Physical and Topographical Features 3.3.1 Sheltering from Winds and Ocean Waves - Natural sheltering features such as headlands, off-shore shoals and bars, would reduce the artificial sheltering requirements? such as breakwaters, and thereby reduce cost. Headlands offer protection from winds and waves. 3.3.2 Subsoil Conditions - Sites should be suitable for the construction of port structures and development of water area. Availability of rock at shallow depths may be good for structures but unworkable for water area to be dredged or used as anchorage. Very soft bottom does not also provide gcod holding conditions for anchors. Clay or other firm tenacious materials *Glossary of terms relating to port and harbour engineering. 4 IS :4651 (PartV)-1980 would form better holding ground fqr anchorage. Characteristics af soil/ rock at design depth level would thus influence the choice of the harbour site. 3.3.3 Dredging- Minimum capital and maintenance dredging and freedom from dredging large quantities of rock or other hard bottoms should be an important consideration. 3.3.4 Shore Line Stability - Non-eroding shore lines should be preferred. Land adjacent to shore line should gradually slope away from the beach. Locations with pronounced topographical relief such as cliffs adjacent to shore line may create problems. 3.3.5 Upland Drainage - Upland areas should be naturally well drained and there should.not be health hazards due to local drainage conditions 3.4 Hydrographic and Hydrological Factors 3.4.1 Tides - Locations with tidal bore and high tidal range should -be avoided. 3.4.2 Current Velocity - Current velocity should preferably not exceed 4 knots ( 7.4 km/h ) anywhere within the harbour. 3.5 Meteorological Factors - Locations subject 10 pronounced, severe and frequent storms should be avoided. 3.6 Construction Materials, etc - Availability of construction material, particularly rock for breakwater and other construction works and adequate fresh water supply will be an advantage and will reduce cost. 3.7 Strategic and Security Conditions - Strategic and security conditions at a particular site shall be given due consideration. .4. NAVIGATION 4.0 General - CHANNEL Water ways should be laid out in proper configuration and designed for good control and safe manoeuvrability of ships under all conditions, winds, currents, waves, visibility and in adverse weather conditions. It is difficult to lay down rigid standards on various aspects of navigation channel, as conditions will vary from port to port depending upon its location, natural shelter, tidal and other condition, prevailing depths and various other factors. Strong currents and winds, for example, have a very significant effect on the alignment, width, depth, turning circles, etc, of the proposed channel and can alter the requirements appreciably. The local conditions and the port's own knowledge and experience are very important factors. 4.1 The use of channel for navigation pre-supposes that the channel is adequately marked and lit for night navigation and is provided with necessary lighted transits and modern navigational .aids. 5 IS : 4651 ( Part V) - 1980 The alignment of channels should be such that ships expected to use the channel can navigate with reasonable safety under adverse conditions of tide, current, wave and wind action. The following are general conditions in determining the optimum channel alignment. `The channel should be straight as far as possible. 4.2 Alignment - 4.2.1 The channel should be located in areas of maximum natural depth to reduce cost of initial and maintenance dredging. 4.2.2 As far as possible, drift should be avoided. areas prone to excessive siltation and littoral 4.2.3 The number of curves and the angles of deflection of the axis ( see 4.4 ) should be kept down to a minimum. 4.2.4 As far as practicable, a minimum angle between the channel axis and the resultant effect of the direction of the prevailing wind and swell and current should be maintained. 4.2.5 Adequate stopping distance ( see 4.5 ) to bring a vessel to a stop with or without tug, having regards to the requirements of the using agency and experience of the port authorities to handle vessel of a particular size should be provided. 4.2.6 The entrance to the basin should be located on the lee side of the harbour, where possible. If, however, the entrance has to be located on the windward size of the harbour, it should be adequately protected by breakwater. 4.2.7 In critical locations, for example, entrance to harbours, under bridges, approaches to docks, etc, straight approaches long enough for the vessel to become properly aligned to the berth is necessary. 4.3 Types of Channels 4.3.1 Unrestricted Channels -An unrestricted channel is a channel of sufficient depth and which has a width more than 10 times the beam of the largest ship likely to navigate the channel at all states of the tide, 4.3.2 Semi-restricted Channels - Semi-restricted channels are channels in shallow water where a certain amount of trenching is done by dredging, allowing for side slopes with the adjoining areas having less depth than in channel (see Fig. 1 ). 4.3.3 Fully Restricted CJlanneIs - Fully restricted channels are channels which are fully banked and where the entire cross-sectional area of the channel is generally dredged; for example in canals (see Fig. 2). 4.4 Curves and Bends - Curves, particularly sharp turns, should be ~avoided. Where these are necessary, the following requirements should be fulfilled as far as possible. 6 1s : 46$1( Part Jr ) - 1980 WATER LEVliL SEA BED FIG. 1 SEMI-REWRICTED CHANNEL FIG. 2 FULLY-RESTRICTED CHANNEL 4.4.1 For vessels proceeding without tug assistance, the minimum radius, of the curve should not be less than 3 L for central angle of the turn up to 25", 5 L for turns beyond 25", and 10 L for turns beyond 359 where L is the length of the largest vessel. Where it is not possible to provide these radii the channel should be suitably widened. As a guide following radius of curvature is desirable, where possible. R mln = 1200 m for ship less than 150 m long O/A = 2 OOQ m for 150 m long O/A = 2 000 to 3 000 m larger than 150 m but smaller than 210 m long O/A 4.5 Stopping Distance - The stopping distance in channel varies with the displacement/horse power ratio, reverse power, shape of hull of the vessel, etc. As a rough guide, the following distance may be provided which should be sufficient for the vessel entering the harbour to reduce the speed and bring it to a complete halt. Vessel in loaded condition 7 to 8 times the ship's length Vessel in ballast 3 to 5 times the ship's length In harbours where the entrance is exposed to weather, the stopping distances should be reckoned from the beginning of the protection work to the centre of the turning basin. The degree of protection required for the dredged channel will depend on the sea conditions prevailing in a particular location. 4.6 Depth - The following factors should be taken into account in designing the depth of the channel: a) Size, draft, shape and speed of hull of the design vessel; b) Trim of vessel when moving through water ( termed drag ); 7 IS 2 4651( Part V ) - 1980 c) Current velocity in the channel; d) Squat assessed on the ratio between cross-sectional area of the immersed portion of the ship and cross-sectional area of the channel at low water; e) Whether the channel is fully restricted, semi-restricted or unrestricted; f ) Number of lanes in channels; g) Wind and wave action; h) The tidal variation; j) Dredging pattern and frequency; k) Salinity and bottom material; m) Degree of accuracies in hydrographic survey and other accuracies; and n) Net under keel clearance. 4.6.1 Taking in consideration of the above factors, it is recommended that minimum under keel clearances should not be less than 10 percent of the draft of the vessel in the channel, 15 percent at the turning circle and 20 percent at entrance to the channel in unsheltered areas. 4.7 Widfh of Channel 4.7.1 The clear width of a restricted channel measured at the bottom of the dredged bed may be taken as the sum of the following three zones ( see Fig. 3 ): a) Manoeuvring lane ( single lane ) should be 180 to 200 percent of the vessel's beam in straight channels and suitably widened in curved channels; b) Bank Clearance - Normally 75 to 150 percent of the beam of the largest vessel on each side; and c) Passing Clearance - The distance between adjacent manoeuvring lane in two lane channel, should not be less than the beam of the largest vessel. 4.7.2 Where the width of the channel is to be reduced at the harbour entrance for obtaining tranquility conditions, the reduced width between pier heads shall be a minimum of 0.7 to 1 times the length of the largest designed vessel. Where the entrance is between sloping breakwaters the width should be measured at the maximum draft at mean low water. 4.7.3 Should currents or cross winds across the channel be experienced, the .width of the manouvering lane should be increased on the basis of the direction and the maximum velocity of cross currents or wind experienced. An example of this allowance is given in Fig. 4. 8 IS:4651(PartV)-1980 0.75 -1.5 B 1.0-2.0 MANOEUVRING LANE WIDTH B 1 0.75-1.58 BANK BANK CLEARANCE BOTTOM 3.3 - 5.0 B 3A ONE LANE CHANNEL A+ -1.5 BANK CLEARANCE 0.75 B LANE ' CLEARANCE 1 LANE MANOEUVRING 1.8 - 2.0 B 14.75-1.5 B BANK CLEARANCE MANOEUVRING 1.8 - 2.0 B BOTTOM WIDTH i 5.1-8.0 B 38 TWO FIG. 3 LANE CHANNEL WIDTH OF CHANNEL seas, 41.4 In channels where ship yaw is experienced due to quartering the width of the manoeuvring lane shouId be suitably increased. 4.7.5 In case of riverine ports having a very long channel with no intermediate anchorage and where navigation is dependent on tides, the width of the channel may have to be increased at places to allow for the vessel to swing round. 9 Ew651(PartV) -l!m CURRENT 5-5 km CURRENT 5.5 km/h \ I \ \ MADE GOOD, SHIP I I I CHANNEL r---CHANNEL I 135m APPROX WIDTH WIDTH 215me 335-m DUE CHANNEL c i 'I[~.4 EXAMPLE SHOWING ALLOWANCE ORCROSSWIND 10 TO-CURRENTS 4.7.6 In increasing the width of the channel at curvature the widening of the curve should be done by the parallel bank method. The slope of the transition should be at least 1 in 20 ( see Fig. 5 ). FIG. 5 PARALLEL WIDENEDBEND IN CHANNEL 4.8 Cnrrents and Winds 4.8.1 The -current in channel section at harbour entrance should not be too strong or too sluggish to maintain required sediment movement. In general the maximum current should not exceed 4 knots (7.408 km/h) where possible. Where the current velocity exceeds this value, it may be necessary to adjust the channel cross section to maintain an optimum flow. 5. HARBOUR BASIN 5.1 Layout - The following are general considerations layout of a harbour basin. in determining the 5.1.1 `Harbours receiving wide range of vessels should preferably be divided into at last two zones - one for larger ships, and the other for smaller crafts to be located in the inner and shallower regions of the basin. 5.1.2 A separate basin on the leeside of the main basin for bulk cargo and cargoes of noxious nature should be provided, Hazardous cargo wharves should be located keeping in view safety distances and clearance from other berths and installations preferably towards the outer end of the harbour or basin. Berths for vessels carrying explosives or petroleum lubricant ( POL ) products shall be located in isolated anchorage or areas keeping in view the safety distances. In all cases statutory requirements should be complied with. 11 Is:4651(PartV)-1980 5.1.3 The dimensions and layout of the basin should be critically examined with respect to short and long period resonance. 5.1.4 The berths and berthing basins should be located in areas which are best protected from wind and wave disturbance and away from the disturbance incident upon the harbour entrance and resonance. 5.1.5 The turning basin should be located at the head of navigation channel and should occupy the central area of the main basin offshore of the berths. 5.1.6 The anchorage area should be located close to the harbour but well clear off the channel traffic. 5.1.7 Offshore shore. moorings beach should should be located be provided, as close as possible entrance to the opposite 5.1.8 A spending harbour entrance. where necessary, 5.2 Depth T The depth of the harbour basin below the chart datum should be determined based upon tranquility and salinity conditions. The minimum depth of water within the harbour basin should not be less than the loaded draught of the largest vessel plus an allowance of O-60 to 0.75 m for underkeel clearance. Where the harbour bottom is hard, the allowance should be increased to 1 m. Additional clearance may be required in basins where wave energy disturbances exist. 5.3 Water Area - The total water area requirement would normally comprise of the following: a) Berthing area, b) Passage and manoeuvring area, C) Turning basin/circle, and d) Anchorages and offshore moorings. for the harbour basin Separate water areas should be allowed for channels, special berths, and spoil grounds if disposal of dredging should be done. The capacity of the water areas within the harbour may be evaluated in terms of numbers, types and sizes of vessels which could be simultaneously anchored within Unless the harbour is a the harbour limits and at pier or wharf berths. natural one, because of economic reason, its size should be kept as small as possible as will permit safe operations to take place. 5.3.1 Be&zing Area - The space required for berthing of ships should be based on the dimensions of the largest design ship and the number and type This IS the area in front of the berthing strucof ships using the harbour. ture required to accommodate the vessel or vessels and attendant craft. 12 IS:4651(PartV)-1980 5.3.1.1 Length of berthing area - For long continuous wharf for large ocean giving vessels, the recommended length of the berthing area should not be less than the length of the design vessel plus 10 percent subject to a minimum of 15 m. This may be increased up to 20 percent in basin exposed to strong winds and tidal conditions. For finger piers and marginal quays meant for general cargo vessel provisions are given in 6.3.1 to 6.3.3. 5.3.1.2 Width of berthing area - ~The width of berthing area should not be less than l-15 times the beam of the design vessel. To this width the beam or beams of the attendant craft should be added. For accommodatinggeveral vessels abreast, the width of the berthing area should equal the number of vessels for berth multiplied by I.10 times the beam of the design vessel. . For finger pier, the width of the slip including manoeuvring area ( see 5.3.2 ), that is, the water area between adjacent ~piers should be not less than 3 times the beam ~of the design vessel plus 30 m for single IX. th piers and 4 times the beam of the design vessel plus 45'm for double berth piers. An extra allowance should be made in cases where the wind velocity is likely to exceed No. 5 in the Beaufort scale that is a wind velocity of 35 km/h. 5.3.2 Passage and Manoeuvring Area -This is the space beyond the berthing area required for the passage of vessels and tugs, and to permit vessels to enter or leave their berths. 5.3.2.1 The width required to permit a vessel to swing freely into a berth is 2.0 times the length of the vessel for berths at 90", I.50 times for berths at 45" and, 0.60 times the length of the vessel for berthing parallel to the fairway. 5.3.3 Turning Basin/Circle - The size and/or diameter of the turning basin would depend on the geometry of water area available and berth arrangement and shall be as follows. 5.3.3.1 The diameter ofthe turning circle where vessels may be warped round turning dolphins, should be minimum l-2 times the length of the largest vessel to be turned. 5.3.3.2 Where vessels turn by free interplay of the propeller and rudder assisted by tugs, the minimum diameter of the turning circle should be l-70 to 20 times (l-70 for protected locations and 2.0 for exposed locations) the length of the largest vessel to be turned. Where no tug assistance is available, the diameter of the turning besin may be as large as 4 times the length of design ship. 53.4 Anchorages and Offshore Moorings - The water area required for anchorages and mooring basin depend on number, type and sizes of vessels which would require protection in bad weather and/or the number, type of buoy mooring berths required for supplementing bulk cargo handling. 13 5.3.4.1 For free swinging moorings ( see Fig. 6 ), the radius (R) in me&es of the anchorage areaper berth may be computed from the following equation: a) Using ships anchor and chain R = 165* + L + 4 L where L is the overall length of the vessel in metres. b) Using mooring buoy R=1*2L+r where r tr radius of swing of buoy allowing for tidal range in men-es, and may be estimated from standard catenary equation.

FIG. -6 FREE SWINGING MOORINGS 5.3.4.2 For bow and stern mooring The water area per berth may be calculated-on the following basis ( see Fig. 7): a) For anchor/buoy system{ the length ( A') in metres, and width ( W) in metres, of the anchorage area X= 1*2L+r+-llO* W=2r+B where L = length of vessel in metres, r = radius of swing of the buoy in metres, and B 3 the beam of the vessel in metres. *Equivalentto 4 shackles. 14 b) For two-buoy system: X = 1*4L+2r W=2r+B c) For anchors/dolphin system: K = 1*2L+ 110* W = 2B d) For two-dolphin system: x =1*4L W = 2B CURRENT \ ANCHORS/ BUOY _ 2 DOLPHINS- 2oBRuoy FIG. 7 Bow AND STERNMOORINGS 5.3.4.3 In multiple point moorings, the vessel is secured to a minimum of four mooring points thereby restraining the vessel to a more or less tied position. Typical mooring arrangements and area requirements are shown in Fig. 8. The selection of the mooring system should be based on the degree of exposure, size-of vessel, degree of restraint required and bottom material. A symmetrical layout of buoys about the centre line of the ,berth would be an advantage where currents and wind directions reverse frequently . 5.4 Sheltering from Wind, Currents and Waves - The harbour basin should be designed and planned~in such a way that an acceptable degree of shelter can be provided to vessels entering or leaving the berths or basin against wind, currents and waves disturbances. *Equivalent to 4 shackla. 15 IS:451(PartV)-1980 _ CURRENT - L-BUOY SYSTEM 3-BUOY ANCHOR SYSTEM b-POINT MOORING L SYSfEM , O-2-0.5L I - /-165*+-. 5 -POINT MOORING SYSTEM . ---- 6 A MOORING SYSTEM 6-POINT FIG. 8 *Equivalent to 6 shackles, that is 165 m. MULTIPLE POINT MOORINGS 16 IS:4651(PartV)-1980 5.4.1 Waves - As a general rule the wave disturbance within the harbour should not exceed the following tranquility condition: Maximum Significant Wave Height in m . At berth General cargo Bulk cargo 0.65 0.90 Turning basin 0.90 1.20 Container cargo Passenger vessel Trawler and fishing boats Deep sea tugs Dredgers Supervisor's boats 0.65 0.65 0.60-0.90 0.60 1.20 1.20 0.45-2.00 0.60-1.20 Offshore mooring I.50 1.50 for berthing 2.50 for operation - The actual figures will depend on the mooring and berthing systems, themethods of loading and unloading used at a particular berth, and with the orientation of the berth in respect of wave directions. 5.4.2 For studying the problem of shelter within the harbour basin and for designing appropriate protective measures with precision, hydraulic models should be resorted to. Models for this type of study should be designed in accordance with the scale relations based on Froude Law. The use of hydraulic models should be combined with marine ship experience and good engineering practice for proper results. 5.5 Harboor Entrance 55.1 Width - The width of harbour entrance should be minimum consistent with safe navigation and tranquility requirements on the harbour and as a rough guide may be considered as follows: For medium vessels ( that is, vessels up to 150 m overall length) 100 to 150 m, and For large vessels - 200 to 250 m ( see also 4.7.2 ). Where the entrance is between sloping breakwaters, the width should be measured for the maximum draft of the largest vessel at bed level. 5.5.2 Location - The entrance should be on leeward side of the harbour where possible. If, however, the entrance must be located on the -windward end of the harbour, adequate overlap of the breakwater should be 17 IS:4651(PartV)-1980 provided so that the vessel should have passed through the restricted entrance and be free to turn. 5.5.3 The effect of cross winds and/or considered. 6. PIERS AND WHARVES 6.1 Required Features - currents should be carefully The general features, convenience and facilities of piers and wharves complex should be as follows: a) Berths of sufficient depths and widths to allow vessels to approach and leave easily and move safely; b) Adequate fender system; c) Sufficient mooring devices, bollards, etc, to safely secure vessel; d) Cargo handling equipment; e) Covered and open storage spaces for cargoes, office space and other operational requirements; f) Proper board and rail accesses, adequate facilities for loading/ unloading road vehicles and rail wagons and parking spaces for lorries and other road-vehicles; & Passenger traffic conveniences, waiting rooms, baggage rooms, immigration facilities, customs inspection; land h) Availability oT suitable utility services, fire fighting equipment and alarm system. should be 6.2 Location and Form - The location and form for berths decided by the following general consideration: a) Maximum ease of entering and leaving berth, b) Availability of required quayage for the design vessel, c) Freedom from harbour line restrictions, d) Foundation condition to permit economic design, and e) Isolation requirements and safety regulations. Special berths, such as, for noxious cargoes, tankers berths, safety regulations should be given extra consideration. or explosive 6.2.1 General Cargo Berths - These berths require a proper apron with cargo handling cranes, rail sidings, circulatory roads, a large shed, adequate open storage areas, proper road and rail accesses, loading/unloading areas, lorry parking space, etc. The ~activities at a general cargo berth generate a good deal of traffic. These berths should, therefore, be kept clear off the arterial roads but in close proximity to in/out gates. 18 Is:4651(PartV)-1980 6.2.2 Passenger Berths - These should be located in close proximity to public road and if possible, rail systems to avoid interference of passenger traffic with dock traffic and security requirements. The berth should preferably be located outside the impounded dock and should have adequate area for a passenger terminal building, circulatory roads, parking of vehicles and railway platform, if possible. The berth should be located as far away as possible from bulk handling berths, tanker berths, and explosive berths. 6.2.3 Bulk Handling Berths - These berths require very large storage areas for import/export cargo, storage silos, and good road and rail service behind to berth. Otherwise -means should be provided for carrying materials to and from stockpile and the berth. These berths normally generate a large amount of dust due to which they should be kept in remote areas away from passenger and general cargo berths and so located that the wind may carry the dust away from such berths. 6.2.4 Container `Berths - These berths require fairly large level and well paved back-up areas over 8 hectares immediately behind the berth. For safety of operation the berth should preferably be fenced off with restricted entry/exit gates. Where containers are railborne, rail sidings should be laid immediately behind the storage areas. G-ood road accesses shall be provided. As the container operation is based on high rates of loading/unloading and a quick turn round time for the vessel such berths should preferably be located outside impounded docks. If inside the basin the berth should have easy access for approach and leaving. 6.2.5 Tanker Berths -As the nature of cargo handled at such berths is explosive such berths should be located in remote areas of the harbour where adequate depth of water, turning area, waiting and emergency anchorages and adequate land for storage of products is available in the vicinity. If inside a basin the tanker berth should be along side the outer arm at least 90 m away from the nearest berth and from the edge of the turning basin. Tanker berths should also be so located that wind may carry away spillage from the edge of the turning basin. Tanker berths should also be so located that wind may carry away spillage from general anchorage or berthing areas. 6.2.6 Explosive Berths - These should not normally be located in general port area. For safety and distance requirements local and/or international regulations should be applicable. 6.2.7 ShYp Repair Berths - These berths should be located where good workshop and road access are available. These berths do not require very wide aprons. 6.2.8 Lay- Up Berth.r - These berths are required for tying up port and commercial flotilla when idle. Their requirement is, therefore, adequate 19 IsA651(PartV)-1980 quay and water area not far away from the commercial part of the dock. Water and oil bunkers should preferably be supplied at this berth. 6.2.9 Hazardous Berths - These should be isolated from passenger berths and requirements as specified in relevant regulations should be followed. 6.3 Dimensions - The size of the pier and wharf should be decided on the basis of dimension of the largest vessel it is required to handle, the quayage area required for transit shed, number of railway tracks, truck lanes, use of crane and the width of apron required to accommodate mooring facilities, and utility services. As a rough guide the dimensions given in Fig. 9 should apply to general cargo berths. The design of a bulk handling berth or container berth requires special consideration and is governed by the type of mechanical handling equipment to be used as well as the vessel sizes. The design of such berths should be co-ordinated with the design of the equipment to be used. As a rough guide, the depth of water at berth and length of berth may be taken from Appendix A. 6.3.1 binger Piers for General Cargo - The size of the pier is determined on the basis of the largest vessel it is required to handle, the area required for apron, transit sheds, railway tracks, roads and other utility services. In this connection reference may be made to 5.3.1.1. For initial planning, the dimensions given in Fig. 9 Types I, IIA and IIB may be employed. The area of the transit shed may be taken as given in 7.2.1.1 where L is the length of the berth in metres. 6.3.2 Marginal Quays for General Cargo - The layout of berths is based on consideration similar to those for finger pier berths as above. The layout of a good general cargo berth is shown in Fig. 9 Type III. 6.3.3 The length of pier or wharf meant for a single vessel should be 50 to 60 m more than the overall length of the design ship. Where more than one vessel has to be accommodated, recommendations made under 5.3.1.1 shall govern. 6.3.4 The minimum width of the pier should be calculated on the basis of area required for transit shed, number of railway tracks, truck lanes of minimum width, apron and width of crane track. As a rough guide an area of 8 500 m2 may be allowed for transit shed for each berth. 6.3.5 Width of Apron - The minimum width of apron may be taken as follows: Facilities Apron width m a) For general cargo: One way traffic Two way traffic One track + One truck 20 6.50 8.00 9.50 I!S:4651(PartV)-1980 One track + gantry crane Two tracks + one truck Two tracks + one gantry crane Modern cargo berths 1l-00 1350 1500 15.00 300 40.00 tQ 18.00 b) For fish wharf c) Container berth d) Bulk handling and other specialised berths Determined by the travelling cargo transfer equipment, conveyor, access road and railways, etc. Determined by the liquid transfer equipment, pipelines, etc. e) Tanker berth 6.3.6 Width of Pier - The width of a pier handling bulk cargo such as ore, grain, cement, etc, should be sufficient to accommodate the travelling cargo transfer equipment, conveyor and access road. required deck elevation of cargo terminal 6.3.7 Deck Elevation -The is related to optimum position of the cargo transfer equipment to cater for two extreme situations, that is, with the largest vessel in light displacement condition at high water and with the smallest vessel fully laden at low water.
