The automated terminal has significant advantages in the stability and high efficiency of loading and unloading operations,safety and energy saving,and green environmental protection.Thus it has become the only way for the realization of the port’s transformation and upgrading in our country.However,the construction of automated ports in our country started late,with little accumulated technical experience and lack of corresponding technical standards and design copes.The 4th phase of Yangshan project is the first fully automatic container terminal project in our country with independent technology and self-made capability.The design experience of this project is of great significance to promote the technological progress of China’s ports.This paper summarizes and sorts out the design results of plane,technology,structure,control,power supply,water supply and drainage,etc.of the 4th phase of Yangshan Project,so as to provide reference for similar projects.
