Abstract :
The static analysis of an given truck crane was conducted using FEA software ANSYS with the expectation of lightweight. The 3D geometric model of the crane frame was modeled by Pro/Engineer software, transported to the ANSYS software and analysised. Results show that the frame weight was reduced by 4.4%percent.
