To step through the application of to prevent a crane from tipping over.A crane of weight has a length (wheelbase) , and its center of mass is midway between the wheels (i.e., the mass of the lifting arm is negligible). The arm extending from the front of the crane has a length and makes an angle with the horizontal. The crane contacts the ground only at its front and rear tires.
