Popis: Container berths, which are an essential component of the marine wharf, are exposed to loads from various sources, such as self-weight, operation loads and the environment loads, but the ship load is considered to have the greatest impact on the structure. The container berth in Um Qaser Port was chosen as a model for the study. This paper was based on numerical simulation which was performed by using ABAQUS program to investigate the response of container berth structure under the impact dynamic load.. Studies have dealt with choice eight different diameters of the piles, starting from 800mm to 1500mm. The study included three different cases of pile diameter. The first case is the effect of changing the spacing between the piles. The second case is the effect of the pile depth embedded in the soil. The third case is the change in thickness of pile diameter. The aim of this study is to know the behavior and performance of the pavement structure by changing some parameters, including the diameter of the pile, which is considered the basic and important part in the formation of the structure.
