Department of Mechanical Engineering • BUET
Design & Engineering Calculations
A heavy-duty workshop slewing jib crane designed to facilitate safe material handling and loading of heavy stock onto lathes and milling machines.
Structural Sizing
Calculated bending moments, deflection criteria under maximum tip load, and welded gusset plate reinforcements.
Bearing & Pivot Assembly
Selected thrust and radial bearings to ensure smooth 180° cantilever slewing under full working load.
