Textbook Question
Chapter 30, Problem 65SDP
Lattice booms for cranes are constructed from extruded cross-sections (see Fig. 15.2) that are welded together. Any warpage that causes such a boom to deviate from straightness will severely reduce its lifting capacity. Conduct a literature search on the approaches used to minimize distortion due to welding and how to correct it, specifically in the construction of lattice booms.
