I noted that you intend to do by alternative 2.
- Let your floating fender or scaffolding fender slide on quay wall when tidal level is changed.
- Preventive of quay wall damage, You will make smoothly surface by grinding and paint and then grease on sliding area at quay wall.
- Fenders made from steel profiles with ca 50mm of wood.
My inquiries are;
- How is your fender floating? Or How to fix by scaffolding method?
- Could you submit installation steel plates of alternative 1?
- In my opinion, It is difficult negotiate with my management to accept alternative 2. Why you not suggest to install new rubber fender as suitable type? Due to this project it not the last one and to be easily for the next time you just remove C0-fender then you could use it again.
