Abstract

This chapter presents results from measurements on the Rykkjem ferry dock in Møre and Romsdal county in Norway. The study was conducted as a part of a bigger project that aims to examine the resilience of critical coastal infrastructure when exposed to extreme events. The work presented herein includes a qualitative assessment of recorded time series and describes results from the modal analysis. It is further discussed how long-term monitoring of the existing ferry docks can improve understanding of underlying dynamics, ferry-induced loads and ongoing deterioration processes for ferry dock bridges and as a result of that, improve design safety and the economic aspects when it comes to maintaining this critical part of infrastructure.
