Stability Analysis of Pumper and Finite Element Analysis of Ladder Structure for a Scaling Ladder Pumper

Abstract:

Scaling ladder pumper is one of the important fire-fighting equipment for high-rise buildings firefighting. Because of the complex terrain of the fire scene and the urgent requirement of fast rescue, it becomes very important to ensure the stability of pumper. This paper presents the stability analysis of 20m long scaling ladder pumper which is designed and developed by ourselves. According to the literature the paper lists five different kinds of loads affecting the stability analysis of pumper and discusses the verification methods and the principles of judgments. The finite element statics analysis of 3 section ladders assembly is carried out and it presents the stress and deformation of the scaling ladder under loads, which provides the basis for the structural design and improvement of the scaling ladder.
