Mathcad - Spreader Bar Final

The document describes the design of a cable reel spreader bar. It provides input data on the geometric parameters and material properties of a 10" steel pipe. Forces acting on the pipe from the upper and lower slings supporting a maximum load of 60 tonnes are calculated. Stress analysis is performed to check for compression, bending and combined stresses. The compressive stress ratio, bending stress ratio, and combined stress ratio are all found to be less than 1, indicating the design is acceptable.
