ABSTRACT
The Port of Long Beach (POLB) initiated the Middle Harbor redevelopment project in 2010, and construction began in 2011. The project included demolition of existing Piers D, E, and F wharf structures; dredge and fill activities; ground improvements; placement of a rock dike revetment; and construction of a new wharf structure. When complete, the reconfigured Pier E will play an important role with more than 4,000 linear feet (1,219 meters) of container wharf that can accommodate the shipping industry’s largest vessels. The reconfigured Pier E is constructed in multiple phases, with the wharf construction split into three stages of construction within the construction phases. This paper presents the structural challenges overcome by the design team during the final wharf design of Berth E22 (Stage 3).
