Sections deal with: design features; overhead travelling cranes fitted with a hoist (framework, crab, mechanisms, construction principles); overhead travelling cranes fitted with a winch (framework, mechanisms, brakes, lifting rope, lifting motor, choice of drive motors); European classifications of structures and mechanisms; safety devices (controls, anticollision devices, load limiting devices, load indicators, integral load weighing devices; excess speed detectors, travel automation). |
