Hi I’m designing some navigation piles (free ended, single laterally loaded piles) to protect a water inlet structure for a water treatment works. The inlet is constructed on the River Thames (UK). The design impact load from a vessel on the river is 100 tonnes at 2.5 meters/second. However I’m not quite sure to convert that force into kN. Any ideas please!
