1.0 INTRODUCTION

It is intended to erect a free standing "L80-6S Luffing Jib Tower Crane" with 37.85m mast at the construction site located at Nos.
8-10, Mosque Street, Mid-Levels, Hong Kong.

Since the in-serivce and out-of-service load is determined by using FEM Wind Code - FEM 1001 (refer to Appendix 2) which
design pressure is much smaller than local requirement as stipulated in "The Code of Practice on Wind effect", it is necessary to
make an adjustment accordingly.

3.0 STABILITY CHECKING OF TOWER CRANE

3.1 Design Load with adjustment to HK Wind

According to Appendix 2, the wind load of the tower cranes are determined referring to F.E.M. standard. For the safe use of the cranes in
Hong Kong, the wind load has to be adjusted according to Hong Kong wind code 2004.

Tower Crane Model: LS80-6S

Height Under Hook: 37.85 m
Maxi. Jib Length: 25 m (max.)
Mast Dimension: 1.407 m
Wind pressure in French Code pwf: 1.1 kPa → (refer to Appendix 2)
Wind pressure of HK Code pwhk: 2.57 kPa → (Hk wind with of 50m)

Punching Shear Stress, ν = V / ( critical perimeter x d ) = 0.46 N/mm2

From Table 6.3 this ultimate shear stress is not excessive, therefore h = 1200mm will be suitable.

As ν <νc , ∴ No links required.

∴ Embedment depth of the crane legs = 1600mm according to Manufacturer's Manual is sufficient.
