Twin 40 feet quay cranes are used to improve handling efficiency in container terminals. However, the recommended value of container trucks number is not given in national norms. After discussing the operating characteristics of the twin 40 feet quay cranes, a microscopic traffic simulation model is built for a container terminal with twin 40 feet quay cranes in Dalian to research for trucks configuration problem. Container terminal apron, yard and port gate area are included in this model. By running the simulation model, the traffic operation rule in container terminals with twin 40 feet quay cranes and the relationship between container trucks number and the average handling efficiency of twin 40 feet quay cranes can be observed. Lastly, the suggestion of optimal numbers of container trucks are given, which can provide experience and reference for container terminals planning with twin 40 feet quay cranes.
