A jib crane is a type of crane with a
cantilevered beam, a hoist, and a trolley that is attached to a building column
or cantilevers vertically from an independent floor mounted column. This paper
will primarily focus on floor-mounted jib cranes, in which the trolley hoist
moves along the length of the boom and the boom spins, allowing the lifted load
to be moved skillfully in a relatively circular area. Several factors must be
considered when designing a jib crane, the most important of which are the crane's
own weight and the weight of the goods. This project investigates the
deformation patterns in the jib crane with different design and the work is
carried out by designing reinforcement to overcome those stresses in the
component. With existing dimensions, models are prepared in modeling software
and the analysis is performed on the models by finite element solver with
suitable conditions and results are compared.
