Access to the Quarantine Cell













Access to the quarantine cell will be difficult considering my site is located directly underneathe the bridge. To make a quick exchange between the ship and the quarantine cell, my plan is to create a jetway like structure that will extend from the cell to the top deck of the ship. To do this, the ship has to pull within 20 feet of the bridge to have adequate clearance space. Once the exhange takes place, the "shipway" will contract back into itself.

Also, a second plan is to have an elevator connected from the quarantine cell to the dock. To do this without an elevation shaft, a steel cable will be stretched from the cell to the ground, and the elevator will glide along the cable. The purpose of the elevator is to enable easy echange of supplies to and from the cell.
