Crane Information
Pressure loss per track length...

Ploss = (P1 - P2 ) / L

Mat Information Average pressure into critical mat...

Pavg = ½ (2·P1 - b·Ploss)

Total pressure into critical mat...

P = Pavg·b·W

Ground Bearing Pressure below mat...

q = P / (b·c)

Bending Stress on Mat...

f = 3·q·a²·n/d²   

1200 psi maximum allowed

Horizontal Shear Stress on Mat...

V = 1.5·q·a/d   
100 psi maximum allowed
