Description
Technical Field

[0002] Tower cranes are common large-scale equipment found on construction sites and play a vital role in building construction. The foundation of a tower crane is a critical facility for ensuring its stable and safe operation. In previous projects, tower crane foundations often used concrete foundations or high-pile foundations. These types of foundations require waiting for the concrete strength to reach the required level before the crane can be installed, resulting in a long construction period. Furthermore, concrete foundations are temporary installations and require chiseling away for permanent use, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Some construction cases also use steel sections as tower crane foundations, but conventional steel section foundations require pre-embedded steel plate parts, which are then welded to the steel sections. After the tower crane is dismantled, the steel sections need to be cut into sections for recycling, making them difficult to reuse.

[0046] In order to better illustrate the structure of the tower crane foundation of the utility model, the following Figures 1 to 16 The specific installation steps are explained below. The tower crane foundation installation steps are as follows:
[0047] Step 1: Lay out the lines and position the tower crane according to its installation location.
[0048] Step 2: Use a forklift or truck crane to lift steel beam A to the predetermined location. A total of four steel beams A need to be installed at the four corners of the foundation.
[0049] Step 3: Use a forklift or truck crane to install two concrete counterweights 1. The counterweights have pre-embedded lifting lugs 2. Insert the stop holes 3 on the counterweights into the stop rods 7 on the steel beam A10 and slowly lower them into place. The counterweights are located on both sides of the foundation.

[0051] Step 5: Reference Figure 14 Use a forklift or truck crane to install steel beam a16. Align the holes in the connecting plate 13 at one end of the steel beam a with the reserved screws 9 on the steel beam B17 and insert them. Use nuts to connect the steel beam a16 to the steel beam B11. A total of four steel beams a need to be installed.
[0052] Step 6: Use a forklift or truck crane to install steel beam b17. Connect the ends of steel beam b17 to the two steel beams a16 using bolts and nuts 12. Two steel beams b are required. The second layer of the steel-concrete foundation is now installed. The upper and first layers of the steel-concrete foundation are now fully installed and ready for use.
[0053] Step 7: Check whether the bolts and nuts at all steel beam connection nodes are tightened.
[0054] Step 8: Reference Figure 16 Four jacks are set under the steel beam b17. The position is just below the tower crane anchor foot 15 on the steel beam b. The jacks apply a certain amount of prestress to the steel beam.
[0055] Step 9: Start hoisting the tower crane. Connect the lowest standard section of the tower crane to the tower crane anchor foot 15 reserved on the steel beam b17.
[0056] Step 10: After the tower crane is dismantled, dismantle the steel-concrete foundation in reverse order according to the above steps. Steel beam A, steel beam B, steel beam a, steel beam b, and concrete counterweight blocks can all be completely recycled and can be used at any time.
