This document calculates the stresses on a davit arm used to lift loads. It provides the dimensions of the arm, the load it is lifting, and performs calculations to find the compressive and bending stresses at two points on the arm. It calculates the stresses are 103.46 MPa and 89.4 MPa, both of which are below the allowable stress of 118 MPa. Therefore, the document determines that the davit arm is suitable for the given load.

calculation of davit arm
cut area of davit arm A= /4*(d1^2-d2^2)= 3605.61 mm2
load W= 9810 N mm bend radius of davit arm R= 400 kg mm outside radius of davit arm d1= 114.3 mm mm mm inside radius of davit arm d2= 92.04 mm mm length of cantalever S= 750 mm E of davit arm E= 202000 mm MPa L= 1850 mm length of A to B l= 147.00 mm AB tubular cut area K= ( d1^2 + d2^2 )/16R2= 0.0084 conefficient 2= 1/E*(W/A)*(l/r)2= 0.0002162 stress max1= W/(-A)+W*S/(A*R)*(1+1/K*(-d1/2)/(R-d1/2))= 103.46 MPa + radius of inertia r= 1/4*( d1^2 + d2^2)^0.5 36.69 mm stress max2= W/A+W/A*d1*S/(2r2)*(1+0.5*2)= 89.4 MPa + allowbale stress = 118 MPa max1 and max2 davit arm is ok!
