Abstract

Tower crane structure is quite different from other building structures.This paper discusses effect of wind on tower crane operation and some tower crane accidents caused by wind are presented to expound anti-wind problems in tower crane design and operation.Measures.against such accidents,which should be taken in design and operation of tower crane are proposed.
