OVERVIEW

BOLLARD PULL

TESTING

Bollard pull test are conducted in order to determine the static pull that a tug is able to employ in operating conditions. To enable fair comparison, the trials are not performed in typical operation conditions (e.g. shallow and confined harbour basin), but in conditions as close to ideal as possible, i.e. in conditions where the environmental and external effects are minimised.

A Bollard Test or Bollard Pull Test is a physical test typically performed by fixing a board to a Bollard on shore with a hawser and measuring the Pull with a Load Cell.
