Wall Mounted Jib Crane (H-Type)
Mechanical System Design
Department of Mechanical Engineering
Executive Summary
Jib crane is a machine that is used to lift heavy loads of greater than 1 ton. There are two main
kinds of jib cranes like Column Jib cranes and Wall mounted Jib cranes. Column jib cranes are
the cranes which utilize a vertical column that is fixed on the Earth with the help of nuts and
bolts. Wall mounted jib cranes do not contain vertical columns rather they have brackets that are
used to fix the crane beam with the wall. Jib Cranes are further divided into three different kinds
on the basis of beam used i.e. C-Type Jib cranes, H-Type Jib Cranes and T-Type Jib cranes. Our
Project is to design an “H-Type” Jib crane. Talking about H-Type jib cranes, these cranes have
an H-Type beam on which the trolley is mounted.
Some required specifications, given by the client, have been utilized to design a particular jib
crane. The designed H-Type jib crane has maximum capacity of 1850 kg, a span length of 7.25
meters, maximum height of 8 meters and slewing angle is 300 degrees. Travelling mode is
manual i.e. the movement of trolley is controlled manually whereas slewing mode is motor
controlled i.e. left right turning movement of the beam shall be controlled by motor. After
considering all parameters, it has been calculated that hoist motor should have a power of 68 kW
or higher to lift the maximum desired capacity load.

1. Problem Definition
1.1.
Problem Scope
While working in industry, especially in mechanical field, we deal with a lot of heavy load.
Heavy loads include any machinery with engine power mechanism, any vehicle like car, trolley
or van. This is the case when we intentionally use cranes for moving them when these things are
not movable on their own. Moreover, we also deal with accidents everywhere. When huge loads
are disturbed accidently, then cranes are also employed to deal with these accidently fallen loads.
Jib cranes are basically kind of overhead cranes. These cranes have a large horizontal arm and
are fixed with the wall, or earth via long column, to lift a load in a particular defined range of the
arm. These types of cranes have a big application that these are highly used for construction
purposes. Hospitals, Banks, Plazas etc are all constructed by the assistance of jib cranes. These
are also called as tower cranes.
1.2.
Technical Review
When I talk about technical review, then I am going to deal with the structural components and
its technical specifications. Main structural components of the crane are boom or a particular
type of Beam, tie rod, brackets, gusset and trolley. Length of boom is called span and it is usually
6 to 8 meters, I have 7.25 m in my case. Bolts and welding are also used while assembling these
components. Technical design and detail of each component shall be discussed in further
sections of this report.
1.3.
Design Requirements
I am going to design a “Wall-mounted Jib Crane” with H-type.
2. Design Description
2.1.
Overview
Actually, a unique power drive (electric) with built in adjustable clutch is used to power the
crane. There is a “VFD” Controller Rotation Panel attached to the motor. Slewing power is
transmitted by gears i.e. pinion and ring gear. Collector rings and cable grip is provided for the
given rotation i.e. 300 degrees. The hoists and trolleys of jib cranes are slow moving with a
manual travelling mode whereas slewing is motor controlled. Brackets shall be used to connect
crane on the wall.

2.2.
Structural Components
The main components with some specified details are highlighted below:
Fig. 02: Structural Concept of H-Type Jib Crane (H Beam Design, n.d.)
2.3.
Applied forces to the supported structure
When we talk about wall-mounted jib crane, then there is no need to use mast. Only wall
brackets are used where there are two kinds of forces exerted; pull on one bracket and thrust on
the other. As applied load is towards down, hence tie rod will tend to extend itself which will
exert a pull on bracket. A thrust will be generated on the other bracket to accommodate this pull.
Fig. 03: Application of Forces (Design Concepts for Jib Cranes, n.d.)
2.3.1. Loading Calculations
(a)
Angle between tie rod and boom is kept low; let us assume it to be 10 degrees, then;
(b)
Fig. 04 (a, b): Force Analysis (Design Concepts for Jib Cranes, n.d.)
Here,
A = Span = 7.25 m
P = Maximum load = 1850 kg = Resultant

𝐡 = 𝐴 tan πœƒ = (7.25π‘š) × tan 10 = 1.278 π‘š
𝑩 = 𝟏. πŸπŸ•πŸ– π’Ž
Hence, using equation (1);
𝐹𝐻 = (18148.5) × π‘π‘œπ‘  (

)
1.278
𝑭𝑯 = πŸπŸ•πŸ–πŸ•πŸ. πŸ•πŸ– 𝑡
Now, for vertical forces, we can write:
1
𝐴
𝐹𝑣 + 𝐹𝑏 = [π‘Šπ‘™π‘–π‘“π‘‘π‘’π‘‘ + π‘Šπ΅π‘œπ‘œπ‘š + π‘Šπ‘‡π‘Ÿπ‘œπ‘™π‘™π‘’π‘¦ ] ( ) , . … … … … (2)

π»π‘œπ‘–π‘ π‘‘
Let us assume that sum of lifted weight, boom weight and trolley weight is equal to the capacity
of the crane and is given as (1850 x 9.81) N. Also let us consider A=E, hence we can write:
π‘Šβ„Žπ‘’π‘Ÿπ‘’,
𝑭𝒗 = π‘·π’”π’Šπ’ (𝟏𝟎) = πŸπŸ–πŸπŸ’πŸ–. πŸ“ 𝐬𝐒𝐧(𝟏𝟎) = πŸ‘πŸπŸ“πŸ. πŸ’πŸ“ 𝑡
𝐹𝑣 + 𝐹𝑏 = 1850 × 9.81 π‘œπ‘Ÿ 3151.45 + 𝐹𝑏 = 1850 × 9.81
𝑭𝒃 = πŸπŸ’πŸ—πŸ—πŸ•. πŸŽπŸ“ 𝑡
2.4.
Moment and Shear diagrams
Considering impact factor of 1.3, we can write bending moment as:
πΌπ‘šπ‘π‘Žπ‘π‘‘ 𝐡𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔 π‘€π‘œπ‘šπ‘’π‘›π‘‘ = 1.3 × π‘ƒπ‘¦ × π΄
Where
P y = Maximum vertical load = P sin 𝜽 = 18148.5 (sin 10) = 3151.45 N
A = span length = 7.25 m
π‘°π’Žπ’‘π’‚π’„π’• π‘©π’†π’π’…π’Šπ’π’ˆ π‘΄π’π’Žπ’†π’π’• = 𝟏. πŸ‘ × πŸ‘πŸπŸ“πŸ. πŸ’πŸ“ × πŸ•. πŸπŸ“ = πŸπŸ—πŸ•πŸŽπŸ. πŸ’πŸ π‘΅π’Ž
Maximum Shear force is constant due to a point load and hence given as:
π‘‰π‘šπ‘Žπ‘₯ = 𝑃𝑦 = 18148.5 sin(10) = 3151.45 𝑁
Maximum bending moment can be written as
π‘€π‘šπ‘Žπ‘₯ = 𝑃𝑦 𝐴 = 3151.45 × 7.25 = 22848.013 𝑁
Fig. 05: Bending moment and Shear Force diagrams (Shear forces and Bending Moment
Diagrams, n.d.)
2.5.
Deflection in the Beam
Considering boom section as an H-beam section, we can label and write the moment of inertia:
Fig. 06: Moment of Inertia Calculation (H Beam Moment of Inertia, n.d.)
2𝑏𝐻 3 + π‘‘β„Ž3
π‘€π‘œπ‘šπ‘’π‘›π‘‘ π‘œπ‘“ π‘–π‘›π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘‘π‘–π‘Ž = 𝐼 =
12
Width and thickness can be taken equal and equal to 0.5’, hence B = H = 0.1524 m, thickness is
taken as 0.5 inch, hence b = 0.0127 m, h = 2b = 0.0254 m, d = 0.127 m
2𝑏𝐻 3 + π‘‘β„Ž3 2(0.0127)(0.1524)3 + (0.127)(0.0254)3
𝐼=

12
12
𝐼 = 7.66 × 10−6 π‘š4
Material = ASTM A36 Steel
Modulus of Elasticity = E = 200 GPa
Using deflection formula for cantilever beam, maximum deflection with full load is:
π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘₯ =
π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘₯
𝑃𝐴3
3𝐸𝐼
(18148.5)(7.25)3
=
3(200 × 109 )(7.66 × 10−6 )
π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘₯ = 1.505 π‘š
This value is much greater than expected; hence tie rods are essential for this kind of crane.
When we will use tie rod, then load will be divided into components. Vertical component will be
responsible for the deflection:
π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘₯

Boom will undergo 261 mm of deflection when loaded fully, which is acceptable.
2.6.
Trolley Design
Trolley could be a unit that carries the hoisting mechanism that travels on the bridge rails in the
direction perpendicular to the Crane runway. Crane trolley frame is actually the basic structure of
the trolley on that the hoisting and traversing mechanisms are mounted.

Where, “u f” is friction slip coefficient. This is a design procedure for the trolley. Some selected

Beam Structure
Let us consider an H-Beam with the following nomenclature:
Fig. 09: Schematic Diagram for the cross-sections of an H-Beam (H Beam Calculations, n.d.)
Fig. 10: Moment Diagram of Crane Cantilever Beam (H Beam Calculations, n.d.)
Where, d=depth, b= width, t
thickness can be obtained as:
w
= web thickness and t f = flange thickness. Minimum wing plate
Where, Z0 is Plastic Modulus and S0 is Section modulus of the beam. These can be found by:
Let us consider that Ls is length of welding zone and L b is length of span i.e. 7.25 m, hence
π·π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ π‘€π‘œπ‘šπ‘’π‘›π‘‘ = π‘€π·π‘’π‘šπ‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ =

Where, M p is plastic moment and it can be measured by using:
𝑀𝑝 = 𝐹𝑦 𝑍0
Where, “F y” is a yielding stress of steel.

B16.21-2005) Nonmetallic flat gaskets for pipe flanges, n.d.)
Some standard values for the H-Beam structure are given in the appendix (Table 04 and Table
05)
2.8.
Pivot Assembly
Pivot assembly is very essential towards boom installation. Here are some steps required to make
pivot assembly for boom installation:
Fig. 11: Bracket Dimensions [In inches] (Hoist and trolley full catalog, n.d.)
Determine the position of upper pivot mounting assembly on the support structure, and drill bolt
holes. Quickly bolt the upper pivot mounting assembly to the support structure (don’t use lock
washers).
Determine position of lower pivot mounting assembly by dropping bob (by others) through pivot
holes
Drill bolt holes and bolt lower pivot mounting assembly to support structure. Don’t force bolts
till boom assembly is put in.
Remove the upper pivot mounting assembly from support structure.
Fig. 12: Plumbing pivot mounting assembly (Hoist and trolley full catalog, n.d.)
Clean pivot pins with a clean, dry cloth. Slide the bearings on pivot pins. Ensure to orient
bearings properly.
Lift boom weldment up and insert lower pivot pin into lower pivot mounting assembly
Fig. 13: Orienting Bearing, Figure: Installing boom welding (mediathek, n.d.)
Place higher pivot mounting assembly on higher pivot pin of boom assembly Bolt higher pivot
mounting assembly to support structure.
Fig. 14: Installing upper pivot mounting assembly (Hoist and trolley full catalog, n.d.)
At 45° intervals, make sure pivot pins of crane are plumb. Shimming of higher and/or lower
pivot mounting assembly is also needed (shims included).
Once pins are plumb and shimmed, tighten all mounting bolts to manufacturer’s specifications.
Carefully swing boom through entire journey and guarantee boom is obvious of obstructions and
doesn't drift. If boom drifts, support structure is also inadequate and/or pivot mounting assembly
might not be aligned
Attach 2 brake pads to the lower pivot mounting assembly by using two 1/4” socket head cap
screws, lock washers, and lock nuts.
Fig. 15: Installing friction brakes on wall-mounted pivot assembly (mediathek, n.d.)
Adjust brake by alteration 2 lock nuts to get the desired motility resistance of the first arm.
To adjust the secondary arm, loosen the set screw and jam nut.
Adjust set screw for desired motility resistance.
Tighten the jam nut.
Fig. 16: Adjusting the secondary arm on wall-mounted pivot assembly (mediathek, n.d.)
2.9.
Hoist Assembly
A hoist may be a device used for lifting or lowering a load with the help of a drum or lift-wheel
around that the rope or chain is wrapped. Cranes and Hoists are somewhat interchangeable things
since the particular lifting mechanism of a crane is usually stated as a hoist. Hoists could also be
integral to a crane or mounted in a fixed position, temporarily or permanently. Once a hoist is
mounted to a self-propelled trolley on a single rail system, 2 directions of load motion are
available i.e. forward or reverse, up or down. Once the hoist is mounted on a crane, 3 directions
of load motion are available i.e. right or left, forward or reverse, up or down.
The hoist mechanism may be a unit consisting of a motor drive, coupling, brakes, gearing, drum,
ropes, and cargo block designed to lift, hold and lower the most rated load. Hoist mechanism is
mounted on the trolley.

2.10. Detailed Description
There is a particular procedure that must be followed before making a crane structure. There are
some considerations which are of primary importance and these can’t be ignored. Primary level
requirements include the codes and standards, loading, the steel structure design, clearances and
Earthworks. Earth works must be done on the soil to make sure that it can bear heavy loads.
Fig. 19: Flow diagram for Crane Support Structure Design (Thompson, n.d.)
2.11. Drive Assembly
There are two requirements that must be fulfilled before selecting wall bracket jib crane:
1) There should be a structurally adequate wall, column or truss to support the crane. Note
that the responsibility for determining if the support is adequate or not, rests entirely on
the customer. Information on the loading of the support by the crane can be found by
checking the manufacturer’s guides for cranes e.g. WB100.
2) There should be sufficient clearance (nominally 3 inches) above the tie rod throughout its
arc.
Before selecting wall brackets, tie rod, drive motor and rotation arm, we should know the
mechanism to be utilized for making the drive assembly. General mechanism can be seen in the
figure below:
Fig. 20: Drive Assembly (Wall mounted jib crane, n.d.)
3. Welding Analysis

Beam Bracket Construction:
ο‚·
It connects tie rod to the beam near end of span.
ο‚·
It consists of a formed clevis fastened to the tie rod, and bolted to the formed beam
channel.
ο‚·
Design does not rely on any tension welds
ο‚·
Pivot bolt is in double shear
3.4.
Bottom Bracket Construction
1) Bottom bracket accepts the downward and compressive forces which actually crane
applies, yet provides optional ease of rotation and resistance to drift the boom.
2) It has a formed channel which is bolted to the supporting structure.
3) It has two beam connecting plates that are welded to a steel tube, which contains two
bronze bushings.
4) The bolts that connect the plates to the beam are in double shear, with a minimum
dependency on welds in carrying the load.
5) The beam bracket assembly normally rests on an oil-impregnated bronze thrust washer
and is held in a formed wall channel by using a pivot bolt assembly that is in double
shear.
6) A grease fitting is also provided for field lubrication.

Tie Rod
i.
A single tie rod made up of ASTM A36 and right hand threaded at each end is used.
ii.
Tie rod offers ease of leveling
iii.
It assures that the bottom bracket and H-Beam will be loaded evenly.
iv.
The design of single tie rod is superior to a double tie rod arrangement that depends on
even adjustments of the two tie rods, which can increase installation time as well as costs.

5. Bearing Analysis (Slewing Bearing)
Slewing Bearing is a main component used in jib cranes. It is responsible to reduce friction in
slewing. When crane slews or turns at a certain angle like 300 degrees in our case, this bearing
turns out to be an essential part to help this rotation. It basically contains two rings, one inside
and one outside. A lubricant is added between these two rings to reduce friction.
Table 10: Selection of bearing
5.1.
Material
Steel is used as a basic manufacturing material. Different alloys of steel are prepared for better
strength. These materials are specially prepared for this purpose.

6. Cost Analysis
Cost estimation for each part of the crane will be done according to the companies recently
manufacturing these parts. Complete cost and product details shall be provided in this section
along with their references from reliable sources.
6.1.
Trolley and Hoist Set
Trolleys with complete hoist are easily available in market. It can be selected by visiting
companies who produce different kinds of crane trolleys. We have got a similar hoist and trolley
assembly which also includes hoist motor as well as hook assembly.
CD Electric Wire rope hoist has only one normal speed whereas MD Electric wire rope hoist
gives two speeds i.e. normal and low speed. At a low speed, it can do precise loading and
unloading.

6.2.
H Beam
We have found some companies who manufacture H-Beams of different dimensions. We can
easily select one beam of our desired dimensions. The minimum price we can get for a 7.25 m
long H beam is $550.
The selected company produces H-Beams with lengths 6m to 12 m and flange width of 100 mm
to 900 mm hence we can get our desired beam section here.

7. Conclusion
Some required specifications, given by the client, have been utilized to design a particular jib
crane. The designed H-Type jib crane has maximum capacity of 1850 kg, a span length of 7.25
meters, maximum height of 8 meters and slewing angle is 300 degrees. Travelling mode is
manual i.e. the movement of trolley is controlled manually whereas slewing mode is motor
controlled i.e. left right turning movement of the beam shall be controlled by motor. After
considering all parameters, it has been calculated that hoist motor should have a power of 68 kW
or higher to lift the maximum desired capacity load.Detailed Engineering Drawings were made
and are attached in the Appendix. All drawings were made in SolidWorks 2016. Main
components, which were considered in making drawings, were H-Beam, Trolley Assembly and
Hoist Assembly, Tie rod, Wall Brackets and Fasteners like nuts and bolts. Standard dimensions
were used and all dimensions can be seen mentioned in the drawing files.
