Calulations for End bars

The end bars are the two bars at the back of the crane whilst the side sidebars are the bars running along the side of the beam Calculations needed to be made for the end bars so that they could fit inside the top part of the legs, and appropriate dimensions were calculated obtaining a suitable weight . The end bars were circular rather than rectangular like the rest of the bars. The calculations are shown below.



The calculations were fairly straight forward and simple , however, the only hardship was to get the right dimensions in accordance to the other bars in the crane.
