Development of a Bow Module for the Seaboss Causeway Ferry
2002
Karrh, Billy | Tabor, Peter
This report describes the development of a bow module for the SEABOSS causeway ferry. A decision was made by the sponsor to develop a bow module that accommodates the majority of beaches where amphibious landings may occur and is practical to operate. This translated to a beach gradient of 1:50 or more. Flatter beach gradients may require a transition from the beach to deeper water by a pier-like facility, such as the floating causeway. The project effort included: a historical review of bow ramps for landing military vehicles on beaches; the development of design criteria for the bow module; the development of alternative concepts for the bow ramp and bow module; the evaluation and selection of a design concept for the bow module; and the preparation of detail design drawings for the bow module.
