Abstract
This defining method comprises the steps of: —simulating a crane comprising: i) a boom made up of elements and ii) a lifting member that is able to move along the boom, —selecting several elements to be tested, maximum stresses, and several ranges along the boom, and —carrying out the following analysis steps of: •choosing a theoretical load, •calculating stresses brought about by the theoretical load in each element to be tested, •comparing these stresses with maximum stresses, •increasing or decreasing the theoretical load depending on whether stresses are less than or greater than the maximum stresses, •repeating the calculating step and the comparison step and the step of increasing or decreasing until the maximum theoretical load is found, and •recording i) the range and ii) the maximum theoretical load.
