It is assumed that half weight of vessel is effective when it comes alongside jetty or wharf; vessel of 40,000 tons at speed of 1/2 fps requires fender of 1000 in. tons capacity; types of fenders of steel, timber, rubber, and reinforced concrete; calculation of fenders based on kinetic energy of vessel moving at certain velocity; properties of fender piles; costs. (See also - discussion p 82-105, 4 supp plates; further discussion n 2 June p 532-44)
