ASCE COPRI Seattle Chapter Monthly Dinner Meeting - Sep 28, 2016

Topic: Port of Tacoma Pier 4 Reconfiguration Project
Description: As an initial step in constructing the first big ship ready container terminal in the Pacific Northwest, the Port of Tacoma has embarked on a series of wharf upgrade projects at Piers 3 and 4 to accommodate berthing two Ultra Large Container Vessels (ULCVs). An unusual kinked pierhead line configuration, a waterway width restriction, a 64-foot gauge crane rail system, and mooring and berthing components sized for smaller vessels require a structural upgrade of Pier 3 and a complete reconfiguration of Pier 4.

This presentation will focus on the approach taken to upgrade Pier 4 and provides an overview of the project, design criteria, and solutions implemented.
