Scope

Classification of mechanisms for all types of cranes based on severity of intended use, loads and load combinations, calculation of stresses, stresses in components and the selection and verification of proprietary items. Appendices give classifications normally associated with different types of cranes, assessment of torque and determination of fatigue reference stresses.
