Safety Issues with Tower Crane and Remedial Measures
Abstract: Tower cranes are the focus of execution on today’s typical building construction sites. Tower crane has to hoist and transport a variety of loads near and above people, under crowded conditions, occasionally with overlapping work zones, and often within time, budget, and labor constraints. This leads to the safety risk on sites that are intrinsically hazardous. This paper identifies the major factors affecting safety of tower-crane and evaluates the degree …

Influence of Wind Braces on the Dynamic Performance of an Industrial shed Integrated with Gantry Crane of Different Capacities
Abstract: Linear structural analysis of industrial sheds often neglects ascendancy of different structural elements over the dynamic performance of the shed. A slight variation in the structure may introduce huge steel demand or it can reduce the demand to a considerable extent. This research paper studies the non-linear response of an industrial shed equipped with gantry cranes of different capacities and different structural systems. The influence of these elements has been …

Use of Simple Scientific Principles in Rural Areas for Common Utility
Abstract: Archimedes principle describes the laws of a floating body, be it a country boat or an ocean going ship. Based on such principle and common laws of forces defined by Newton’s laws for motion, the stability equations of a floating body has been developed. Some of the Indian villages, mostly in northern India, are inundated with many rivers and canals which are mostly used for economic activities like fishing, irrigation …

Codal Validation and Optimization of Gantry Girders Under Variable Wheelbase and Impact Loads: A Review of Analytical, Numerical, and Codal Approaches
Abstract: Gantry girders serve as critical structural elements in industrial facilities such as steel plants, workshops, and heavy manufacturing units, where electric overhead traveling (EOT) cranes operate. The design of these girders is governed by stringent codal provisions to ensure safety under bending, shear, and deflection. However, discrepancies between codal predictions, analytical formulations, and finite element analysis (FEA) results, particularly under variable wheelbase and dynamic impact loads, have been widely reported. …

SEMI-AUTOMATIC COW LIFTING MECHANISM
Abstract: There is a great difficulty faced by the farmers due to lack of machinery needed to move cows manually and are struggling much because of the high costs involved in handling the problem. The primary challenge dairy farms face is lifting the cow that has fallen over owing to excess weight gained during pregnancy, a leg injury, or an infection. These cows must be lifted by at least two people, …
