INTRODUCTION & SCOPE OF WORK

The following calculations are performed to verifiy the design of a lifting lug (Padeye) for use in temporary works such as
shop lifts and movements of equipment during construction and handling of equipment prior to it's service life.
Note: Padeyes for service / operational use may require additional design checks depending on the nature of the service
and the particular design codes applicable for the project. The following calculations are carried out in accordance with
EC3 allowable stress limits and assumes onshore controlled lifting in plane with the padeye using Crosby 2130 or Green
Pin shackles.
This calculation does not include checks for the local area capacity under the padeye.
