Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A crane has a weight of 6000 kg and a counterweight of 3000 kg at a distance of 5 m from the load line. How do you determine if the crane is stable while lifting a load of 4000 kg?

💡 Hint: Remember the moment equilibrium principles.

Question 2

Evaluate the impact on lifting capacity and stability if a truck-mounted crane, without proper leveling, is placed on a sloped terrain.

💡 Hint: Analyze how uneven ground alters crane's center of gravity.
