A Pick-n-Carry Mobile Crane Boom Stress Analysis

Abstract

Mobile crane telescopic booms that are light and sturdy are a rarity. Crane booms may be retracted and extended in a variety of ways. Although retraction of the crane's boom improves its performance, extending the boom reduces its operational capacity. Increasing the distance makes communication more difficult. The crane's lifting capacity decreases as it moves away from the load. It used to be that crane booms couldn't go to new heights, but that's no longer the case. When the crane's boom is fully extended and angled to the highest degree achievable This research relies on the utilisation of crane boom and component stress analysis. SAE J1078 [2] specifies that calculations must be done by hand. The crane boom may be more efficient if its weight and strength are maximised. The crane boom components are compared in this research.
