Normal cranes cannot be used to move the fan inside the high-rise factories. Due to the size of the fan and safety accidents, there is a need for a structure capable of lifting and transporting. In this study, the safety of the structure was evaluated by considering the center of gravity of the fan and the effect of the fan being tilted up. An analysis of the buckling was performed by hand calculation. Nonlinear analysis was performed using ABAQUS to evaluate the safety of the structure. The safety factor for buckling is above 4.0 and the safety factor for stress is calculated to be 1.31 under the worst load distribution conditions.
