In this study, the current regulations to be adequate in industrial site have to be renew in order to prevent the fatal injuries by mobile cranes. Fatal injury analyses were conducted with several accident cases by the mobile cranes. For each accident, the causes of the injuries were examined and proper safety measures were proposed. This study proposed a revision of the standard guideline as an accident prevention measures through in-depth analysis of fatal accidents. First, fatality rate per 10,000 persons by the mobiles cranes was 0.57 in 2011. Second, the in-depth analysis of the mobile crane accidents showed that the main factors of the accidents were the overturn of mobile crane, the fracture of connection part between mobile crane boom and rope, the breaking of rope and the misunderstanding over the signal between a mobile crane driver and workers around a mobile crane. Third, the order of high defection of connecting parts was bucket bolt, bracket and extension parts. Fourth, since there were several cases of overturn of mobile crane by itself in the in-depth analysis of the mobile crane, the over slop-proof device was proposed as the main alternative in this study. Fifth, the revision of standards of safety factor that shall be more than 10, of connecting parts of mobile crane was proposed.

A mobile crane has been more frequently used to deal with the increased capital-intensive projects in line with the economic growth, but the operation is still heavily dependent on personal experience in the past, resulting in severe overturn accidents that cause the loss of lives and damage to the properties. A crane shall be installed in a systematic manner that proved to be safe in engineering aspect, and should the installation and operation be blindly dependent on experience alone, it would apparently cause a great risk. Particularly the mobile crane, among others, frequently causes a severe overturn accident due to poor ground-fixing device. The study therefore focused on fixing system of mobile crane and the outcome is highly expected to make a great commitment to selecting the optimal type of crane for the project as well as to securing the safety during construction.

Forensic Engineering is the area covering the investigation of products, structures that fail to perform or do not function as intended, causing personal injury or damage to property. To investigate the mobile crane's overturn accident in terms of the forensic engineering, in this study, we identified the accident mobile crane's position and posture before accident by the analysis of the trace resulted by the contact between the outrigger and the ground, and the accident remodeling has been performed using CATIA modeling program in the basis of the accident mobile crane's position and posture information. The accident analysis has been performed by comparing this accident remodeling and the crane's specification, the table of the allowance load about the boom's length and the working radius. Through these studies, the safety accident that may occur in mobile crane can be minimized by performing specialized and systematic investigation of the accident cause in terms of the forensic engineering.

This paper describes the power line proximity warning device for mobile crane by using the induced voltage measurement method. A mobile crane worker can be easily exposed to dangerous electrical shock and the electrocution while this are working at near the high-voltage electrical lines. In this paper, the derivation electric-potential of the power lines are simulated and microprocessor-based detecting device and transmitter/receiver modules are introduced to show a solution for the dangerous mobile crane working environment.

A new concept sea-floating port called mobile harbor has been introduced, in order to resolve the limitation of current above-ground port facilities against the continuous growth of worldwide marine transportation. One of important subjects in the design of a mobile harbor is to secure the dynamic stability against wave-induced excitation, because a relatively large-scale heavy crane system installed at the top of mobile harbor should load/unload containers at sea under the sea state up to level 3. In this context, this paper addresses a two-step sequential analytical-numerical method for analyzing the structural dynamic response of the mobile harbor crane system to the wave-induced rolling excitation. The rigid ship motion of mobile harbor by wave is analytically solved, and the flexible dynamic response of the crane system by the rigid ship motion is analyzed by the finite element method. The hydrodynamic effect between sea water and mobile harbor is reflected by means of the added moment of inertia.

해상부유식 항만부두인 모바일 하버에는 일반 지상설치식 크레인과는 다른 구조를 가진 크레인이 설치되어 있다. 그리고 상부에 설치되어 있는 크레인은 파고에 따른 모바일 하버 전체의 동적 안정성에 지대한 영향을 미친다. 본 연구는 해상상태 3의 파고에 따른 모바일 하버용 크레인의 롤링 동응답 해석에 관한 내용으로서, 이론과 수치해석 기법으로 구성된 2단계 해석절차를 적용하였다. 선형파고이론에 따라 강체로 가정한 모바일 하버의 롤링응답을 이론적으로 계산하고, 모바일하버 본체의 롤링에 따른 탄성체 크레인의 롤링 동특성을 유한요소해석으로 분석하였다. 모바일 하버 본체와 직접 접하는 파고의 동적 연계효과는 부가질량 기법으로 반영하였다.

The effect of heavy construction equipment on the excavated slope is investigated by slope stability analysis. A mobile crane with 500 kN capacity is applied as a working load to the background surface of the excavated slope, in both sandy soil and clay, designed to guarantee the safety of slope stability. Major parameters such as the distance between the edge of the slope and the mobile crane, groundwater level, and ground plate size of the mobile crane are considered. Only 23.8% and 14.3% of the analysis models with sandy soil and clay excavated slope, respectively, satisfied the slope stability. By changing the slope of the sandy soil from 1:1.0 to 1:1.2, the number of analysis models securing slope stability increased from 23.8% to 40.5%. For the clay excavated slope, the analysis models securing slope stability increased from 14.3% to 42.9% by changing slope inclination from 1:0.8 to 1:1.2. In addition, it is found that the increase in the size of the ground plate of the mobile crane increases the analysis models that secure slope stability. Therefore, it is an effective way to relax the excavated slope's inclination angle and simultaneously increase the ground plate size to guarantee stability.

In this paper, wind force coefficient by wind tunnel experiment is obtained to compute the accurate wind force of the gantry crane model to be used for mobile harbor ship. The first crane model was tested under 20, 30, 40, 52m/s, partially 58m/s and the wind force coefficient is about 2.0 which is very close to the suggested theoretical value. The other is the more reliable crane model and tested under 20, 30, 40m/s also giving the similar realistic wind force coefficient. Also structural analysis of crane model was performed giving the reliable stress level. Since the rolling effect is important for mobile harbor ship, the safety of the crane on the ship needs to be guaranteed. For this, using the computed reaction forces, a tie-down design is suggested which connects the crane and ship to resist the turnover motion of the crane.

모바일하버는 선박의 대형화로 인하여 항만에 접안 및 정박이 불가능하거나 선박의 접안 대기시간이 길어지는 경우 등 항만의 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 제시된 새로운 개념의 시스템이다. 이 새로운 시스템은 해상에 있는 선박에 다가간 후, 모바일하버에 설치된 크레인을 이용하여 선박에 컨테이너를 직접 상, 하역작업을 하도록 고안되었다. 모바일하버용 크레인은 컨테이너를 이송하는 장치로써 그 중요성이 매우 크다. 본 연구에서는 모바일하버용 크레인의 형태들을 제시하고 각 형태에 따른 구조최적설계를 실시하였다. 불안정한 해상으로부터 발생되는 횡동요 및 종동요와 바람에 의한 풍하중을 최적설계의 하중조건으로 하였다. 또 한국선급 및 각각의 규정들을 최적설계의 제한조건으로 하여 규정을 만족하면서 경량화된 크레인 구조를 최적화하였다.
