Understanding Structural Fatigue in Cranes
Structural fatigue occurs when a crane’s metal components are repeatedly subjected to stress, leading to cracks, deformation, and eventual failure. This is common in cranes exposed to heavy lifting, overloading, harsh environments, or poor maintenance practices.
Common Causes of Structural Fatigue in Cranes:
- Repeated heavy load lifting beyond recommended limits
- Metal fatigue from long-term use
- Exposure to corrosive environments (marine, chemical, or dusty sites)
- Poor lubrication and maintenance
- Misalignment and improper assembly
Common Problems Caused by Structural Fatigue in Cranes
| Problem | Description | Impact on Crane |
|---|---|---|
| Cracked Booms & Jibs | Metal cracks due to repeated stress | Reduces load capacity, risk of collapse |
| Deformed Frames | Bending or warping of main frame sections | Misalignment and unsafe operation |
| Loose or Damaged Welds | Weak joints between components | Structural instability |
| Corroded Structural Parts | Rust and material loss | Weakens crane structure |
| Broken Gusset Plates | Failure at high-stress connection points | Loss of structural support |
| Fatigue in Pivot & Pin Connections | Wear in joints and pivot points | Reduced movement precision |
