As the Gantry crane had been adopted here were some ideas before building a Gantry on CAD
. We looked through and decided an A frame would be suitable. This would stop the crane from buckling as well as provide extra support to the joins, relieving them of some of there bending moment. We also adopted a compact approach. The legs could be taken off , the A frame would be collapsible, the whole thing would be adjustable , and a split I beam allowing for easy storage and transportation. A stabilisation leg could be added , in a just in case
scenario if it was to topple at its end , E.G. if the crane was set up so the beam was not straight, it would act like a safety feature. Many of the features seen on this gantry crane are very common with industrial gantry cranes, although un-innovative it does however mean they are effective.
