Load Criteria
The environmental load return period is calculated based on structure lifetime based on
BS 6349. The environmental load return period is designed using 50 years return period
probability following guidelines on BS 6349 for common port infrastructure. Parameters
used in this calculation obtained from reports, listed as in Table 3 .1.
2. Agats Harbour
The wind and wave condition in Agats Harbour covered several sites as follows:
1. Pulau Laag
2. Muara Atsy (G)
3. Muara Atsy (R)
4. Alur Pelabuhan Agats
The wind speed and direction distribution are given in Table 2 and Figure 2. It shows
that wind with velocity higher than 10 m/s occurred around 0.07% a year. Wind return
period is obtained from extreme analysis with block maxima method. The yearly
maximum wind speed is given in Table 3. 3 types of frequency distribution are tested
which are Largest Extreme Value, Lognormal and Weibull. The distribution test gives
lognormal distribution as best fit with pvalue > 0.05 and smallest Anderson Darling test
parameter (Figure 3). Return periods are obtained from empirical CDF as given in
Figure 4. The 50 years return period of wind velocity is 84.2 m/s (Table 4).
The wave height and direction distribution are given in Table 5 and Figure 6. It shows
that wave with height more than 0.50 m occurred around 59% a year. Wave return
period is obtained from extreme analysis with block maxima method. The yearly
maximum wave height for wave from west, southeast and all direction are given in
Table 6. 3 types of frequency distribution are tested which are Largest Extreme Value,
Lognormal and Weibull. The distribution test gives distribution of lognormal for west
wave, Weibull for southeast wave, and lognormal for all direction wave as best fit with
pvalue > 0.05 and smallest Anderson Darling test parameter (Figure 7). Return periods
are obtained from empirical CDF as given in Figure 8. The 50 years return period of
wave height is 4.2 m (Table 7). Wave period relation with wave height is given in
Figure 9. Correlation between the wave period and square root of wave height
(DHI,2016) follows 6.4√ H s .
The wind speed and direction distribution are given in Table 8 and Figure 11. It shows
that wind with velocity higher than 10 m/s occurred around 0.07% a year. Wind return
period is obtained from extreme analysis with block maxima method. The yearly
maximum wind speed is given in Table 9. 3 types of frequency distribution are tested
which are Largest Extreme Value, Lognormal and Weibull. The distribution test gives
Largest Extreve Value distribution as best fit with p value > 0.05 and smallest Anderson
Darling test parameter (Figure 12). Return periods are obtained from empirical CDF
as given in Figure 13. The 50 years return period of wind velocity is 14 m/s (Table 9).

The wave height and direction distribution are given in Table 10 and Figure 15. It
shows that wave with height more than 0.50 m occurred around 87% a year. Wave
return period is obtained from extreme analysis with block maxima method. The yearly
maximum wave height is given in Table 11. 3 types of frequency distribution are
tested which are Largest Extreme Value, Lognormal and Weibull. The distribution test
gives distribution of weibull for west wave, Largest Extreme Value for southeast wave,
and lognormal for all direction wave as best fit with pvalue > 0.05 and smallest Anderson
Darling test parameter (Figure 16). Return periods are obtained from empirical CDF
as given in Figure 17. The 50 years return period of wave height is 4.5 m (Table 12).
Wave period relation with wave height is given in Figure 18. Correlation between the
wave period and wave height follows 5.36√ H s .
