Can anyone share with me their experiance on this?
 
Essentially it's a filled cofferdam to absorb the ship's impact energy. They're not intended to stop a vessel. You better get the AASHTO Guide Specification to Vessel Collision.

Go to SlideRuleEra's website and download the old US Steel Sheet Piling Design Manual. There's a design example.
