Ship salvage crane is to salvage the equipment safely, this type of crane in the shipyard's large ships or port is being used a lot of container etc. Such a salvage crane was installed on the land and it is built to use the harbour facilities. In this paper, the response amplitude operator and the wave exiting force of floating type salvage crane is calculated and it is performed to structural response estimation.

Gangform, compared to the traditional forms, is a systemized form which can reduce construction duration and cost by the advantage of using it repeatedly. However, transportation and climbing process of the Gangform is highly dependant on the performance of tower crane. Gangform climbing process takes one day out of six to seven days of a structural work cycle. Tower cranes can not be used in other lifting works when they lift the Gangform during the structural work cycle, causing the delay in the construction project. Numerous efforts and researches have been done in domestic and international industry to solve such limitations of Gangform climbing process. Especially, "A Study on the Development of Automatic Gangform Climbing System for Apartment Housing Construction"has suggested a conceptual model which can climb the Gangform system without a tower crane. In this paper, the technical and economical feasibilities of previously proposed Automatic Gangform climbing system are examined by evaluating its structural stability and lifting load reduction effect.

Gangform compared with conventional wood and steel form is systemized form which has a capability to install and dismantle form at a time without repeating to assembly and disassembly small members. Gangform compared with ACS has some problems such as 1) Tower Crane load increase, 2) increase in safety incidence during climbing Gangform, 3) decrease in detachment operation productivity, 4) stop work due to climate impacts, and 5) decrease in labor cost, productivity, quality. A conceptual design model of automated Gangform climbing system is suggested for apartment housing construction to show its technical/economic feasibility and workers' safety while increasing operation productivity and concrete quality.

In this study, we performed a simulation of the dynamic response of a multibody system to calculate the tension acting on wire ropes connecting floating cranes and a heavy cargo such as a Giga Block weighing over 5000 tons when the cargo is salvaged using parallel connected floating cranes. In this simulation, we supposed that the motion of the floating cranes, barge ship, and heavy cargo has 6 degrees of freedom and that the interaction is determined by constraints among them. In addition, we considered independent hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces as external forces acting on the floating cranes and barge ship. The simulation result can be a basis for verifying the safety of construction methods in which heavy cargo is salvaged by parallel connected floating cranes, and it can also be used to guide the development of such construction methods.

타워크레인은 빌딩, 아파트, 교하공간이 높은 교량, 플랜트 공사 등 고소작업이 이루어지는 공사에서 유익하게 사용되는·건설장비이다 타워크레인은 단면에 비하여 그 설치높이가 높아서 매우 세장한 구조물이며, 마스트 상부에 설치되어 있는 상부구조물(타워 해드, 지브, 카운터 지브, 카운터 웨이트, 기계장치 등)의 자중이 매우 크기 때문에 하중균형, 풍하중, 인양하중 등에 아주 민감한 강구조물이다. 따라서 이러한 타워크레인의 특성에 대한 이해의 부족과 안전한 작업방법의 불이행 등으로 인한 사고가 가끔 발생되고 있으며, 타워크레인의 사고는 곧바로 중대재해로 이어지고 있다.(중략)

The number of horizontal tower cranes, major hoisting machineries for lifting approximately 50% of entire materials in construction projects, is rapidly increasing, but a number of accidents related to the tower cranes are being continuously occurred in construction sites as well. In particular, telescoping works in the horizontal tower cranes have showed the greatest safety concerns such as falls and collapses. It is due to the fact that tasks inserting a new mast in the space made after raising telescoping cage by fluid pressure and ascending it to the required height in the telescoping works include a series of dangerous factors in safety aspects, and might cause very serious and unexpected accidents in construction sites. The primary objective of this research is to propose two conceptual models for automating the telescoping work in horizontal tower crane and conduct their technical feasibility analyses. In this study, a design concept, a position control system using hydraulic cylinders is suggested as a better alternative for automating the telescoping work. Its potential safety improvement rate compared to the conventional method is also analyzed and presented in this study.

이동식 크레인과 관련한 안전사고가 다발하고 있음에도 국내 대부분의 건설현장에서는 아직도 관리감독자와 크레인 운전자의 경험에 의존하여 장비를 선정하고 운용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구를 통해 건설현장에서 발생한 이동식 크레인 전도사고사례와 위험성 평가를 실시한 결과 이동식 크레인을 이용한 안전한 자재 양중작업을 위하여 중량물의 무게 형상, 인양장비 제원, 정격하중, 작업반경 등을 고려한 중량물 취급작업계획을 작성 준수하고 이동식 크레인의 제작 설계기준 준수를 위하여 이동식 크레인 제조사에서 제공하는 사용(취급)설명서를 준수하며 위험성 평가 결과가 실제 이동식 크레인을 사용한 양중작업에 적용 가능하도록 지속적인 관리 등이 요구됨을 알 수 있었다.

This study focuses on an analytical approach to calculate four crane lifting forces for heavy ship hull blocks considering elongations of lilting slings. Four-crane-lifting is a redundant problem. During lifting procedures, in addition to the force and moment equilibrium equations, a compatibility condition is introduced to determine 4 unknown lifting forces. For verification of the method, a ship hull block with field measurements data is analyzed and the result shows that the information obtained by current method could be useful to engineers to conduct lifting work at shipyards.

This study focuses on a simple analytical approach to calculate crane lifting forces for a sunken ship. The method takes into account the relation of lifting forces acting in wire rope slings to the inclination of the vessel including the effect of lug positions. The importance of the sunken ship salvage is explained from the statistics of ship casualties during last 15 years. Euler angles are introduced to represent the inclination of a sunken ship in developing the static force and moment equations,. Three dimensional examples with one redundant degree of freedom for a GT1500 oil tanker are analyzed and the results show that the information obtained by the method could be useful to salvors to conduct salvage work.

This study focuses on an analytical approach to calculate crane-lifting forces for a sunken ship, with consideration to elongation of crane ropes. The method takes into account the relation of lifting forces acting in wire rope slings to the inclination of the ship's hull, including the effect of lug positions. For lifting analysis, the Euler angles are defined to represent the inclination of a sunken ship in developing the static force and moment equations. An additional compatibility condition is introduced in order to solve an indeterminate lifting analysis problem with 4 cranes. A set of lifting forces along the 4 crane ropes is calculated. A 3-dimensional example of the G/T 1500 oil tanker is analyzed. The results show that the information obtained by the method could be useful to engineers when conducting salvage work.
