Question
a crane is attempting to lift a beam that exceeds its load rating. what type of accident is possible? choose the best answer. ① fatigue ① i-beam ① overturn
if you need to review this content, it can be found in the causes of crane accidents module of the cranes topic.
When a crane lifts a load exceeding its rating, the crane is likely to tip over due to the unbalanced load creating a moment that can cause it to lose stability and overturn. Fatigue is related to repeated stress over time, and friction issues don't directly result from overloading in this context. So the most probable accident type here is overturn.
