STT139 TOWER CRANE MANUAL
4. Foundation
4.1 Preparation conditions
4.1.1 To be prepared by the customer
The installation dimensions and the fittings methods of fixing angles are
necessary and adequate to determine a concrete block’s dimensions and
reinforcement, based on fixing angle reaction force table 4.2-1
The value given in the table is the minimum value required to satisfy the
stability of the tower crane.
For all the other dimensions, please consult us without hesitation.
4.1.2 How to choose the concrete blocks

阅
For different tower cranes with different heights, the best concrete block
depend on the jobsite ground pressure, see table 4.2-2
For tower cranes with different heights, the concrete blocks must equal or
lower than the ground pressure.
Install fixing angles:
If the installing of fixing angles is improper, it may cause serious
参
accidents (such as declination of the tower mast).

The installing explanation of fixing angles sees the parts of “installing the
fixing angles”
Fabrication of foundation:
The drawings given out in this Erection Manual can ensure the max. required
pressure.

The fixing angles must be fitted symmetrically in relation to the axes of the
block and form a 1.6m square according to the dimension of mast they are to
receive.

Fig. 4.4-1 fixing angle
Note: In order to fit fixing angles rightly, neither cut nor reduce the given
amount of reinforcing steel bar.

4.4.1 Installation of fixing angles

The parts necessary to perfectly anchor the fixing-angles comprises：
4 fixing-angles and 8 pins
1 mast section
1 fixing frame
a plumb line or level gage
Installation method: install the fixing angle by using the fixing frame
 Assemble the fixing frame and fixing angles together, position the
assembly in the reinforcement.（Note: Owing to transportation is hard to
prevent the fixing frame from deformation, which should be checked
before use. It is feasible that the fixing frame in question is not more than
阅
1mm with diagonal line and horizontal height tolerance.
 use a level gage to check upper level, and adjust fixing angle supporting
plate with sloping wedge to ensure the four corners horizontal height
tolerance of the fixing frame isn`t more than 2mm.
 After checked acceptably, weld the fixing angle and steel bars firmly, pour
the concrete. When pouring the concrete, it should be noticed that the
参
fixing angle can`t be moved.
 Dismantle the fixing frame when it is completely dry, see Fig. 4.4-1.
 When carrying out final inspection, you can install a transition mast (or
mast section) to check the verticality in two directions. If possible, erecting
tower mast and mounting upper part can be allowed.

Fixing foundation should make perfect draining precautions, it is not allowed
to install in water pit, and it is forbidden to sink in water during usage in order
not to cause foundation inclination.
When the foundation is caused depression over 4‰h of tower verticality by
factors such as climate or manmade and so on, you must take effective
measures to adjusted and restored in order to ensure the safety of the tower
crane.
 It is recommended to supply the fixing angles and the fixing frame
in advance before the tower crane is delivered
 When the tower crane is to be erected by means of fixing frame
阅
which is deformable during transportation, it is a must to check
and adjust the fixing frame before use. The height differences
between each mast and the mast or the fixing frame at its
diagonal are required not to be larger than 2mm.

 The fixing frame is only used for embedding the fixing angle.

4.5 Reusable fixing angles
4.5.1 Dimensions of reusable fixing angle
The dimensions of the concrete foundation for the reusable fixing angles
are the same as the dimensions of the fixed concrete foundation. The fixing
angles must be installed symmetrically with the center line of the concrete
blocks, forming 1.6 m square as per the requirement of tower mast
dimensions. Ensure that the horizontal height difference of the four corners of
the reusable fixing angles is no more than 2mm (see Fig. 4.5-1).

4.5.2 Installation of reusable fixing angle

Install the fixing angle bolts into the reinforced concrete according to
corresponding positions of the fixing angle. The reusable fixing angles must
be installed symmetrically with the centre line of concrete block.
The following materials are needed in order to fix the reusable fixing angles
correctly:
4 fixing angles and 8 pin shafts
1 fixing frame
1 level meter
Place 4 reusable fixing angles on the anchor bolts without tightening the nuts.
Connect the fixing frame and the reusable fixing angle together, fastening with
pins, locating pins and split pins, as shown in Fig.4.5-2.
阅
Measure dimensions, adjust the position of the reusable fixing angle.
After adjustment, tightening the nuts to fix the reusable fixing angles on the
ground. Now measure the upper surface of the fixing frame and ensure the
horizontal height difference is not larger than 2mm.
After the inspection, remove the fixing frame. Now it is ready to install the
mast and the upper part of the tower crane.
