Crane Load Capacity Calculation

This document contains input data for calculating parameters related to the installation of a steel pipe. It includes details of the pipe dimensions, material properties, trench configuration, and calculations of bending stresses. Based on the provided information and calculations, the selected side boom spacing of 24 meters is determined to be safe for lifting and positioning the pipe, but the maximum deflection of 1.32 meters exceeds the allowable deflection of 2.64 meters.

Side boom details:

Based on the information collected from site and it is suggested that overhanging to be considered is as given bello

1. First side boom moving in forward direction ) - X8 = 4500 mm from trench centre

2. Second side boom ( behind side boom which will place the pipe section in the trench ) - X8 = 3500 mm from tren

3. Third side boom ( behind second side boom which will place the pipe section in the trench ) - X8 = 2500 mm from

4. The side boom will be placed in staggered position with respect to trench centre line. It will result in nearly same
will give the more conservative results.

5. Number of side booms placed

6. Safe lift capacity at boom overhang at distance X7 (Boom Radius)

7. Selected safe lifting capacity = safe lifting capacity

8. Safety factor (assumed)

Chord Length

Maximum allowable sag as per elastic bend radius

Deflection check : δactual should be less than δallowable
