Purpose of Fender SystemPurpose of Fender System
In general, a bridge over a navigable waterway that is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Coast Guard will have a bridge fender system.Primary function is to delineate channels and redirect aberrant vessels.
FDOT Design Conference 2006 Structures Design Office FDOT Design Conference 2006 Structures Design Office
Purpose of Fender SystemPurpose of Fender System
It is considered as a sacrificial structure.The channel pier is designed for full ship impact. i.e. Neglecting effect of fender system.

Design MethodologyDesign Methodology
The loss of kinetic energy of the vessel is transformed into an equal amount of energy absorbed by the protective structure. The kinetic impact energy is dissipated by the work done by the displacement of the protective system.
17
FDOT Design Conference 2006 Structures Design Office FDOT Design Conference 2006 Structures Design Office
Design MethodologyDesign Methodology
Develop a force versus deflection diagram via analysis or physical testing. The area under the diagram is the energy capacity of the protective system. The forces and energy capacity of the protective system is then compared with the design vessel impact force and energy to determine if the vessel loads have been safely resisted.
