Table 1 Review items for ground contact stability
From: Automatic design algorithms for securing the ground contact stability of mobile cranes
Step | Items reviewed | |
|---|---|---|
Basic Items | Review of the objects to be lifted | Type, material and weight |
Equipment Information | Working radius, the maximum height of objects, crane weight and outrigger radius | |
Ground contact stability | Review of ground contact pressure | Work direction, ratio of impact load and the maximum reaction of outrigger |
Reinforcement of soil bearing force (flat site) | Plate type (steel, timber), rigidity of plate, soil bearing force, bending moment, and shearing force acting on plate | |
Reinforcement of soil bearing force (slopping site) | Additional data including slope data such as slopping angle, slopping length, slopping height, and distributed load on soil | |
