Abstract

The wharf is an important part of the national security system and economic development. The caisson gravity wharf is one of the main structural forms of the wharf in China. The security threat analysis of the system is of great significance to the safe and efficient operation of the wharf. Based on the characteristics of material, structure and working load of caisson gravity wharf, this paper summarizes the safety threats of terminals from both common diseases and occasional safety threats, covering the structural damage that may bring hidden danger to the safety of the structural damage, overall damage, man-made threat and natural threat. The possible failure modes and main causes of the structural wharfs are determined. It is also pointed out that the occasional safety threat may cause multiple failure modes of the caisson gravity wharf to cause serious safety accidents and secondary disasters. Finally, the paper puts forward the measures to reduce the safety risk of the wharf, improve the wharf's response to the threat and ensure the safe and efficient operation of the terminal.
