* The self-weight of the jib is modelled as a uniformly distributed load along the length of the jib. | |||
* As a simplifying assumption for this calculation, it is assumed that there is no moment continuity in the jib at the mast i.e. the end of the jib is pinned to the mast. | |||
* Pin Connection:[[File:Crane-star-sch-pin.png|left|frameless]] | |||
* ''All forces and dimensions are given in kN and m respectively, unless otherwise stated.'' | |||
