Crane duty group according to different standards

Cgmachineryvn ยท 2016-04-06 00:04

Hi guys, i am familiar with FEM standard about Crane duty group which is 1Bm, 1Am, 2m, 3m, 4m but not sure about other standards such as ISO, ASTM... Does anyone has a good experience in choosing correct working group of a crane? Normally, we only know following information: - Lifting capacity - Lifting height (or hook path) - Crane span - Number of operation time per day. Question 1: What is equivalent duty group with FEM? Question 2: How to determine correct crane working group? Hope you get your ideas on this issue. Nice day!
