Tower cranes may have a max unsupported height of 80m or two hundred sixty five feet, while the tower crane's maximum lifting capacity is 16,642 kilograms or 39,690 pounds with counter weights of twenty tons. In addition, two limit switches are used to be able to make sure that the operator does not overload the crane. There is also another safety feature called a load moment switch to make certain that the operator does not surpass the ton meter load rating. Last of all, the maximum reach of a tower crane is two hundred thirty feet or seventy meters.
Because of their extreme heights, there is a science involved to erecting a crane. The stationary structure will at first need to be brought to the construction site by utilizing a huge tractor-trailer rig setup. Next, a mobile crane is used in order to assemble the machine part of the crane and the jib. These parts are then attached to the mast. After that, the mobile crane adds counterweights. Crawler cranes and forklifts may be some of the other industrial equipment which is used to erect a crane.
When the building is erected, mast extensions are added to the crane. This is how the crane's height is able to match the building's height. The crane crew uses what is called a climbing frame or a top climber which fits between the slewing unit and the top of the mast. A weight is hung on the jib by the work crew in order to balance the counterweight. When complete, the slewing unit could detach from the top of the mast. In the top climber, hydraulic rams are utilized to adjust the slewing unit up an additional twenty feet or 6.1m. After that, the driver of the crane utilizes the crane to insert and bolt into place one more mast section piece.
The definition of a "loaded container" for the purpose of securing and container handling; is a container other than in the empty or tare condition. Containers should be treated as loaded, unless otherwise confirmed. To be able to maintain safety, when securing or handling containers, environmental conditions like for instance wind must be considered. The term loaded is the container's maximum gross weigh rating. In order to make certain that the centre of gravity is kept as low and central as possible, the load has to be distributed all over the container.
In order to maintain safety, having an equally distributed load is helpful to prevent lack of vehicle stability, and excessive tilting. An even cargo helps to prevent unacceptable vehicle axle loading, and unacceptable load concentrations.
With the load distribution within the container, the eccentricity of the center of gravity differs. It is very important that the designers of handling machinery and containers take this into account in the engineering process. For example, when 60% of the load by mass is distributed in 50% of the length of the container measured from one end of the machinery, the eccentricity corresponds to five percent.
Make sure that the container is free to be handled and care needs to be taken to make sure it is safely attached to the container, in order to make sure that the machinery utilized is perfect for the load. Specific attention mus be paid to the possibility of the container tilting due to the eccentricity of the center of gravity. When lifting any container whose centre of gravity is mobile or eccentric, like a bulk container, a tank container a thermal container with a refrigerating unit or a container with a liquid bulk bag, either clip on or integral, or any container with a hanging cargo, extreme care needs to be taken when raising these.
