Abstract

Problems related to safe operation of metal structures of bridge cranes are considered and ways to resolve them are proposed. A method of metal foils is proposed for the qualitative assessment of the accumulation of fatigue cracks in the base metals and welded joints. Techniques for determining the equivalent stresses and the number of loading cycles, as well as a method for calculating the residual service life of welded metal structures, are proposed. Results of forecasting the residual service life of metal structures of bridge cranes are considered.
