Lifting Lug Calculations Kod

The document analyzes the lifting lugs on a 500 kg piece of equipment. It calculates forces on the lugs from the weight and lifting configuration. It then analyzes stresses in the lug material and welds. All stresses are found to be below allowable limits, indicating the lugs are sufficiently strong for the given lifting scenario. Weld sizes are also calculated and found to exceed requirements.
