With the rapid development of Chinese ports, the automation of port crane is improving all the time, which makes higher request on safety performance of port crane. Practice has proved that security evaluation based on testing with related theory analysis is practical and effective. This article takes portal crane as an example to introduce the testing for metal structure of port crane, including static and dynamic load stress testing for main parts, NDT for important welding locations and so on. And this article also introduces security evaluation theory for port crane. This kind of security evaluation is very appropriate for port crane and widely used in most port enterprises.
