Abstract:This paper reports the direct ice force measurement technology of jacket structures conducted in the Bohai Sea. Specially designed ice load panels are described in detail, including the measurement principle of the load panel, the specially designed elastic cell and the single panel form. Some factors that ought be considered during the design process are proposed; 2 kinds of ice load panels, for both vertical and conical structures, were designed and installed on some prototype structures in Bohai. Some measured ice force is discussed, and it indicates that the dynamic performance of the panels is good.
