About this asset

Designed for marine civil projects, this industrial white steel samson post Revit family provides a robust cross bollard for docks and quays. The model depicts a classic heavy-duty marine samson post bollard featuring a central vertical cylindrical column topped with a circular flange. A horizontal crossbar extends bilaterally through the upper section, terminated with retaining lips to secure heavy hawser lines and mooring ropes. The upright post is welded to an elongated base plate with rounded corners, detailing six countersunk fastener holes for deck anchoring. Clean geometric extrusions and simple white solid surfaces define the form, keeping polygon overhead minimal while retaining legible profile contours in technical drawings and 3D perspectives.

The download is a 225 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this RFA component directly into Autodesk Revit project environments. As a specialty equipment or site component, it places easily on structural piers, deck faces, or wharf surfaces. Users can assign custom steel, cast iron, or painted finish materials through type or instance parameters. The clean linework ensures straightforward visibility in plan, elevation, and section callouts without creating file bloat in comprehensive maritime BIM models.

This marine mooring hardware is suited for port infrastructure, commercial harbours, marinas, shipyard dry docks, and waterfront boardwalk schemes. Urban designers and landscape architects can incorporate the fixture into coastal promenades or canal redevelopment plans alongside fender piles and edge curbing. It functions effectively as background dock detail, providing realistic berthing apparatus during design development and client presentations of coastal transport facilities.
