Spreader Beam Calc

This document summarizes the key parameters and calculations for a simple spreader beam. The beam is made of S275 steel, has dimensions of 25x25x2 mm, and is 4.8 m long. It is subjected to a hook load of 363 kN at a 60 degree angle and 4.16 m height, resulting in a sling load of 209.6 kN and compression on the beam of 104.8 kN. Calculations show the bending and buckling stresses exceed the yield strength, indicating failure.
