Bollard
Mooring bollards are essential fixtures in maritime transportation and shipping, and they are used to hold vessels to docks or quays. These structures are engineered to endure the significant forces exerted during mooring, including the weight of the vessels, as well as the impact of wind and waves.
Mooring Bollards typically feature a vertical post attached to a sturdy base, which is anchored to the dock or quay. The top of the post includes a horizontal crossbar, designed for holding the vessel’s mooring ropes, ensuring a stable and secure mooring process.
Dock or quay designers typically space mooring bollards evenly to allow crews to secure multiple vessels at once. Mooring Bollards design allows easy access for crew members to attach or detach mooring lines as needed in a quick way.
