Stress analysis of Top Beam

The top beam was analysed to find the maximum deflection and maximum stress, as shown below.


I = Second Moment of Area and y = distance between load and COM of beam.
Yield Stress is 503 MPa, so the beam will not permanently deform under load

In this case y represents deflection.

This small amount of deflection will not affect the operation of the crane.
