Rig stability requirements

Atlas Copco requirements

Atlas Copco's requirements on underground rigs are that they must tolerate a 14°
pitch in the direction of movement with camber of +/- 0° and fulfil Atlas Copco's
underground rig safety requirements in accordance with EN791:1996.

Figure: Atlas Copco requirements

Requirements in accordance with EN791:1996

The rigs must be designed to be adequately stable during the designated operator sit-
uation, e.g. during transportation, tramming, parking and while drilling, and that
there is no risk that the rigs can overturn.

In compliance with EN791:1996 requirements, all equipment must be secure from

dynamic effects such as acceleration, retardation, uneven surfaces and forces gener-
ated by the rig during transport, tramming, parking and when in operation.

Stability norm

Description
Below is a summary of the stability standard in accordance with CEN (Committé
Europe des Normes).

Rig on wheels with booms/drilling unit in transport position

“The rig safety angle (α) must be at least 10 degrees in all directions when moving
and at least 5 degrees when parking.”

The angle of stability is added to the maximum permitted angle of inclination (β)
according to the rig specification.

The fall line of the inclination is parallel with a line through the centres of the wheel
axles. Applicable to both rigid and articulated carriers.

Permitted tipping angle over the wheel axle must not be less than α+β.

1250 0062 30

Figure: Tipping line perpendicular to fall line

α The rig's stability angle
β Max. permitted angle of inclination
A Tipping line
B Fall line

The rig's tipping angle is calculated during operation with the booms directly forward
and within sweeping radius as well as parked in the severest position (max. boom
swing). The tipping angle is calculated for longitudinal and lateral pitching.

The permitted tipping angle over the wheels on one side must not be less than α. Spe-
cial case: The lateral angle of inclination is added if specified.

Safety
8. Rig stability

Rig on jacks with booms/drilling unit in working position.

"The angle of stability (α) of the rig must be at least 5 degrees in all directions when
supported on jacks."

The angle of stability is added to the maximum permitted angle of inclination (β)
according to the rig specification.

The fall line of the inclination is parallel with a line through the centres of the wheel
axles. Applicable to both rigid and articulated carriers.
