Program Description:
"LIFTING_LUG" is a spreadsheet program written in MS-Excel for the purpose of analysis of lifting lugs, used in
rigging operations. The user can enter a desired factor of safety (most applications, F.S. = 5.0). The program will
determine the ultimate strength of the lifting lug based on several checks and will apply the desired factor of safety
to the strengths to attain allowable loads for the lifting lug.
Input:
Design Parameters:
Lug Yield Strength, Fy = 36 ksi
Lug Ult. Strength, Fu = 58 ksi
Edge Dist., a = 2.283 in.
Edge Dist., e = 2.283 in.
Lug Width, b = 5.910 in.
Rounded Edge? = Yes
Will Pin Rotate Under Load? = No
Hole Diameter, dh = 1.339 in.
Pin Diameter, dpin = 1.102 in.
Lug Thickness, t = 1.181 in.
AISC Factor of Safety, F.S.1 = 5.0
AISC Factor of Safety, F.S.2 = 3.1 F.S.2 = max{3, Fy/(Fu/F.S.1)} ASME Notation
ASME Factor of Safety, F.S.3 = 3.0 Assuming Category B lifters

Lifting Lug
Tensile Strength of Lifting Lug (AISC Eqn. D5-1):
P1 = 45.85 kips P1 = (2*a,use*t*Fu) / F.S.1
Summary:
Pallow = 19.53 kips Pallow = min(P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7, P8, P9)
