CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Cranes are industrial machines that are mainly used for materials movements in
construction sites, production halls, assembly lines, storage areas, power stations and similar
places. Their design features vary widely according to their major operational specifications
such as: type of motion of the crane structure, weight and type of the load, location of the crane,
geometric features, operating regimes and environmental conditions. A hook is a tool
consisting of a length of material that contains a portion that is curved or indented, so that this
portion can be used to hold another object. In a number of uses, one end of the hook is pointed,
so that this end can pierce another material, which is then held by the curved or indented
portion. In the industries crane hooks are one of the important components. They are used to
transfer the materials having heavy loads. Crane hooks are liable components subjected to
failure due to stress in accumulation of heavy loads. Area of cross section, material and radius
of crane hook are the design parameters for crane hook. Failure of a crane hook mainly depends
on three major factors i.e. dimension, material, overload. (1)
1.2 History of crane hook
The first known construction cranes were invented by the Ancient Greeks and were
powered by men or beasts of burden, such as donkeys. These cranes were used for the
construction of tall buildings. Larger cranes were later developed, employing the use of
human tread wheels, permitting the lifting of heavier weights. In the High Middle Ages,
harbour cranes were introduced to load and unload ships and assist with their construction –
some were built into stone towers for extra strength and stability. The earliest cranes were
constructed from wood, but cast iron, iron and steel took over with the coming of the Industrial
Revolution.
9. 2
For many centuries, power was supplied by the physical exertion of men or animals,
although hoists in watermills and windmills could be driven by the harnessed natural
power. The first 'mechanical' power was provided by steam engines, the earliest steam
crane being introduced in the 18th or 19th century, with many remaining in use well into
the late 20th century. Modern cranes usually use internal combustion engines or electric
motors and hydraulic systems to provide a much greater lifting capability than was
previously possible, although manual cranes are still utilized where the provision of power
would be uneconomic. (4)
1.3 Types of Crane Hooks
Crane hooks are classified depending on their manufacturing materials as well as the
intended usage and, (amongst other factors) according to this, some aspects are more important
than others. Different types of crane hooks can be classified according to their shapes, method
of manufacture, mode of operation or other unique characteristics. They are made in a variety
of styles to meet specific needs and they are rated for loads of specific type and size. To
understand this deeply, we’ll focus on the main types of crane hooks available in the market
and see which applications they are most suitable for.
Before we start though, is important to remember that crane hooks or lifting hooks are
necessary in order to move different and many types of loads and that there are a lot of uses
depending on the application the intended use is for
1.3.1 Single Crane Hooks vs. Double Crane Hooks
This being said, when you’re looking to define crane hooks depending on their shape,
you will usually be able to choose between single crane and double crane hooks. As the name
suggests, the main difference between these two options is the number of hooks included, and
there are different sub-types possible such as the C-hooks (which is essentially a single hook
variant with a slightly different shape. (9)
Single Crane Hooks are the right choice if your machinery deals with loads of up to 75
tons; this lifting hook is very simple and easy to use no matter which variant you choose.
10. 3
Double Crane Hooks are similar in conception, but their design provides superior
bearing which is suitable for heavier loads of over 75 tons.
1.3.2 Forging Crane Hooks vs. Laminated Crane Hooks
When it comes to the manufacturing methods used to create crane hooks, there are two
main styles available: forging crane hooks and laminated crane hooks. Each option offers
particular benefits and drawbacks that must be kept in mind while deciding which is better
suited for our specific requirements.
Fig 1.2 shows Double Crane Hooks
Fig 1.1 shows single Crane Hooks
11. 4
Forging Crane Hooks are forged from a single piece of high quality steel with low
carbon which is cooled slowly to ensure optimum stress resistance (usually ranging from 16Mn
to 36MnSi). These hooks typically feature very simple manufacturing and are also very simple
to use, since they’re made of a single piece, with installation being very straightforward.
Laminated Crane Hooks are a little more complex, and are comprised of several
steel plates riveted together to ensure higher stress resistance and increased safety.
These hooks are conceived in a way that allows the hook to keep working even if some
of the individual parts are damaged. Laminated hooks are available as single hooks as
shown fig1.4 right part or double laminated hooks as shown fig1.4 left part, and there
are several models available to match different applications. (10)
Fig 1.3 Shows Forging Crane Hooks
Fig 1.4 Shows Laminated Crane Hooks
12. 5
1.3.3 Closed Hooks vs. Semi-Closed Crane Hooks
If you are concerned about having the right hook attachments, then you have to choose
between closed and semi-closed crane hooks. These types of hook feature an attachment for
added security for carrying heavy loads; as the name suggests, the attachment can be closed or
semi-closed.
Closed Crane Hooks attachments are somewhat harder to use and more time-
consuming, but they offer the highest possible safety measures and load bearing potential.
Semi-Closed Crane Hooks aim to bridge the gap, as they offer increased security levels
compared to standard lifting hooks, while being reasonably simpler to attach and dismount than
closed hooks.
Fig 1.5 Shows Closed Crane Hooks
Fig 1.6 Shows Semi-Closed Crane Hooks
13. 6
1.3.4 Electric Rotary Hooks
If you have a requirement for a state of the art crane hook that offers the best features
as well as the highest convenience, you will likely have to choose between electric rotary hooks
or other types of sophisticated crane hooks.
An electric rotary hook is a sophisticated piece of equipment that will improve the
crane’s manoeuvrability and effectiveness when hauling containers. These hooks feature the
ability to rotate while keeping a strong hold on the cargo, which means they can be extremely
convenient and productive in situations that involve moving many containers around limited
spaces (7)
1.4 applications of crane hooks
A crane is a machine, equipped with a hoist, wire ropes or chains and sheaves used to lift
and move heavy material. Cranes are mostly employed in transport, construction and
manufacturing industry. Overhead crane, mobile crane, tower crane, telescopic crane, gantry
crane, deck crane, jib crane, loader crane are some of the commonly used cranes. A crane hook
is a device used for grabbing and lifting up the loads by means of a crane. It is basically a
hoisting fixture designed to engage a ring or link of a lifting chain or the pin of a shackle or
cable socket. Crane hooks with trapezoidal, circular, rectangular and triangular cross section
are commonly used. (5)
Fig 1.7 Shows electric rotary Hook
14. 7
The applications of crane hooks are classified into three sections which are:
1. Construction: in this section are mainly used in construction applications, such as
mobile cranes, rough- and all terrain cranes, crawler cranes and tower cranes
2. Industrial: Typical applications in this section are overhead cranes in a wide variety of
industrial settings such as steel mills or ship yards
3. Rigging: This type of forged hooks is produced in heat treated carbon or heat
treated alloy steels. A general purpose rigging hook with optional latch. Load must be
applied in line with eye firmly in the base (bowl-saddle) of the hook. Note: The latch is
designed to retain such items as slings and chain under slack conditions and is not
intended to support the load. (6)

LITERATURE REVIEW
Crane hooks are the components which are generally used to elevate the heavy load in
industries and constructional sites. Recently, excavators having a crane‐hook are widely used
in construction works site. Studied the stress pattern of crane hook in its loaded condition, a
solid model of crane hook is prepared with the help of ABAQUS software. Real time pattern
of stress concentration in 3D model of crane hook is obtained. The stress distribution pattern
is verified for its correctness on an acrylic model of crane hook using shadow optical method
(Caustic method) set up. By predicting the stress concentration area, the shape of the crane is
modified to increase its working life and reduce the failure rates. Investigated circumferential
stress concentration factors with shallow notches of the lifting hooks of trapezoidal cross‐
section employing finite element analysis (FEA). The stress concentration factors were widely
used in strength and durability evaluation of structures and machine elements. The FEA results
were used and fitted with selected generic equation. This yields formulas for the fast
engineering evaluation of stress concentration factors without the usage of finite element
models. The design rules of the lifting hooks require using ductile materials to avoid brittle
failure; in this respect they investigated the strain based criteria for failure, accounting the stress
triaxiality analyze the stress state in the hook using approximate and exact methods. They
calculated stresses in various parts of the hook material firstly by assuming hook as a straight
beam and then assuming it as a curved beam. Analytical methods were used with the help of
computers, using FEM presented the solid modeling and finite element analysis of crane boom
has been done using PRO/E WILDFIRE 2.0 and ALTAIR HYPER MESH with OPTISTRUCT
8.0 SOLVERY studied the probable causes which led to a failure of the crane hook in service.
The study of accident includes: details of the standards governing the manufacturing and use
of lifting hooks, experimental analysis, mechanical behavior of steel of reported hook and
simulation of the thermal history of the hook. From the literature survey it is understood by this
author that there is a lot of scope for studying the design and the stress analysis with different
cross sections. Taking into this consideration, the author has embarked on studying the design
as well as stress analysis of crane hook with four different cross sections such as rectangle,
trapezoidal, triangle and circular cross sections. (2)

CHAPTER THREE: DESIGN OF THE CRANE HOOK IN AUTOCAD
3.1 Introduction Of AutoCAD
CADD is an electronic tool that enables us to make quick and accurate drawings with the
use of a computer. Drawings created with CADD have a number of advantages over drawings
created on a drawing board. CADD drawings are neat, clean and highly presentable. Electronic
drawings can be modified quite easily and can be presented in a variety of formats. There are
hundreds of CADD programs available in the CADD industry today. Some are intended for
general drawing work while others are focused on specific engineering applications. There are
programs that enable you to do 2D drawings, 3D drawings, renderings, shadings, engineering
calculations, space planning, structural design, piping layouts, plant design and project
management (3)
3.2 The History of CAD
In 1883 Charles Barbage developed idea for computer. First CAD demonstration is given
by Ivan Sutherland (1963). A year later IBM produced the first commercial CAD system. Many
changes have taken place since then, with the advancement of powerful computers, it is now
possible to do all the designs using CAD including two-dimensional drawings, solid modeling,
complex engineering analysis, production and manufacturing. New technologies are constantly
invented which make this process quicker, more versatile and more powerful.
The first true 3D computer model created on CAD systems in the late 1970s was the 3D
wireframe model. Computer generated 3D wireframe models contain information about the
locations of all the corners and edges in space coordinates. The 3D wireframe models can be
viewed from any direction as needed and are in general reasonably good representations of 3D
design. With most CAD systems, creating 3D wireframe models usually starts with
constructing 2D entities in 3D space. Two of the most commonly used methods for creating
3D wireframe models are the Box method and the 2D Extrusion method. (8)
18. 11
3.3 The Units Of The CAD
Every object we construct in a CAD system is measured in units. We should determine the
system of units within the CAD system before creating the first geometric entities.
So that all units we use in our projects are in centimeter (cm)
