Crane Tipping Load Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the Crane Tipping Load.
TL = W*D1 / D2
- Where TL is the tipping load (weight, lbs,kg, etc)
- W is the weight of the crane (lbs,kg, etc)
- D1 is the distance from the center of gravity of the crane to the tipping axis point
- D2 is the distance from the center of gravity of the load to the tipping axis point
To calculate the crane tipping load, divide the distance from the center of gravity of the crane to the tipping point by the distance from the center of gravity of the load to the tipping point, then multiply by the crane weight.
