Tips for dealing with broken crane booms
Thread Content
Tower cranes are large, highly dangerous heavy machinery, and tower crane accidents occur from time to time. Among these, accidents involving the breakage of tower crane booms are the most severe. It is understood that the main causes of such breaks include collisions with other objects, deformation of the steel material, corrosion, or an excessive load being carried – all of these factors can lead to the breakage of the boom. To avoid accidents, we should be aware of the possible failures of tower cranes. Below, the editor will explain the specific emergency measures in case of a broken crane boom: First, the broken part must be welded back together, and then all the structural components of the tower crane need to be reinforced. II. Re-secure the boom and the counterweight arm to prevent the tower crane from tilting or toppling over due to changes in torque during the installation and removal of the boom. III. Finally, remove the components of the deformed boom, then cut them using gas cutting. The tower crane is taken apart following standard disassembly procedures in order to carry out maintenance.
