Crane Design
Conditions we are considering:
1. To be able to be carried manually
2. Fit the crane in back of a 4 x 4
3. Ability to be assembled
4. Can be hand powered or motor powered
As decided in our last meeting, I designed my initial ideas for a crane that follows the conditions.
There is a potential problem that could occur if these designs were placed straight into the disaster areas. I am currently working on ideas on how to secure the base of the crane i.e. with wheels or fixed. In all situations they are designed to work on level ground. This will need to be considered in the design. Also the balance of the crane needs to considered as it will be used in disaster conditions.
We will update more after our next meeting on our detailed designs....
