Abstract

This study was carried out to analyze the effect of wind load on the structural stability of a 50ton articulation type container crane using wind tunnel test and provide a container crane designer with data which can be used in a wind resistance design of an articulation type container crane assuming that a wind load 75m/s wind velocity is applied in an articulation type container crane. Data acquisition conditions for this experiment were established in accordance with the similarity. The scale of an articulation type container crane dimension, wind velocity and time were chosen as 1/200, 1/13.3 and 1/15. And this experiment was implemented in an Eiffel type atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel with $11.52m^2$ cross-section area. Each directional drag and overturning moment coefficients were investigated and uplift forces at each supporting point due to the wind load were analyzed.
