5.2 PERMANENT ACTIONS (DEAD LOADS)
Dead loads include the self-weight of all structures, all deck wearing surfaces, long-term loads such as cargo storage facilities, superstructures, and mooring fittings (bollards, quick- release hooks. etc.). Piles and other elements immersed in the sea should include the influence of marine growth.
5.3 IMPOSED ACTIONS (LIVE LOADS)
5.3.1 Wharf deck loads
Wharf surfaces should have a specified loading classification that will govern the design of all elements of the structure, including deck, beams. headstocks and piles.
Distributed loads should be applied over the whole of the deck between kerbs. or inside handrails, etc. Loads should be applied to a single span, or all spans, or alternate spans to produce the worst design effect. Concentrated loads should he applied at a critical location in one span in lieu of a distributed load.
The design loads and classifications shown in Table 5.1 should apply as appropriate for the facility, or as specified by the owner of the facility particularly’ for large port projects. For wharf decks that handle containers, the design of the 4harf structure should be checked for the loads applicable for the particular arrangement of containers and container handling equipment as indicated in Appendix A, in addition to the loads given in Table 5.1.
The loads indicated in Table 5.1 and Appendix A are service loads. These loads need to be factored to obtain ultimate limit state (strength) design loadings.
Structures should be designed for directly related horizoittal live load actions such as braking loads from vehicles, slewing/luffing loads from cranes.
