| Abstract |
Recently construction equipments have been used in line with building the structures that have become taller, larger and complex. And as the works at the elevated level for apartment and residential-commercial building projects have been on the rise, the number of tower cranes mobilized tends to be increased too. Due to such an increase in using the equipment serves the critical factor for the project management. The climbing-type tower crane, which increases its height following the structure, has been increased and the need for selecting the optimal model has been increasingly important in securing the stability. The study hereby proposes the model to evaluate the stability of the climbing-type tower crane. The model was designed to assist in selecting the type of crane as well as in developing the design of Collar comprising the 3 types of support member, evaluating the stability and designing the embed. The model proposed is expected to make commitment in selecting the optimal type of equipment and evaluating the support member and embed for enhancing the stability, thereby ultimately enabling to implement the project in efficient way. |
