The purpose of this research is to develop a 3-dimensional model of the new Kuala<br />

Terengganu drawbridge and to determine the configuration of marine aids to navigation<br />

of Kuala Terengganu waterway. The river of Kuala Terengganu has been dredged and<br />

widen to allow the construction of the drawbridge. The change of physical geography and<br />

bathymetry which predominantly man-made could make the last configuration of marine<br />

aids to navigation do not meet the present geography and bathymetry data. Simulation<br />

is one of the tool that can be used to design a shipping channel and application of new<br />

configuration for the aids to navigation (AToNs). Simulation modelling solves real-world<br />

problem safely and efficiently. This method is known for its reliability, easily verified,<br />

communicated and understood. A simulation model of 3-dimensional new Kuala<br />

Terengganu drawbridge was created by using the Presagis Multigen software. Besides,<br />

FSA (Formal Safety Assessment) is one of the tool in the risk assessment to be used along<br />

with the simulation to analyze the risk involved when a particular vessel using the<br />

waterway includes the new Kuala Terengganu drawbridge. The simulation model was<br />

installed in the Ship Simulator and thus aids to study by testing the improvement of the<br />

new configuration of AToNs & risk assessment of vessel using the waterway.<br />
