Abstract
As part of a public-private partnership, a marine terminal and port operator recently constructed a new berth for the Port of Baltimore at the Maryland Port Administration’s Seagirt Marine Terminal. Delivered in two years by means of a design/build approach, the new, 1,255 ft long berth features a 154 ft wide ballasted deck and four massive container cranes. Designed to service ships having drafts of as much as 50 ft, the berth was constructed on a former disposal site for excavated marine material, resulting in significant design challenges regarding soil conditions and existing cofferdams.
