Abstract: This paper is the result of the need for dynamic analysis of certain elevating platforms. Project engineers research institute of
Faculty of Mechanical Engineering in Pristina. Platform supporting structure is specific because of its purpose to hole and to transit the
loads, as well as the kinematics of lifting mechanism. This paper started with briefly review of the scissors – type stationary platform
construction and transportation system. After that, the procedure for creating the model for the leverage calculation is exposed. Strength,
and the scarring capacity of construction, is proving by the structure analysis by Finite Element Method.
Key words: calculation, design, structural analysis, elevating platform, finite element

The leverage is exposed to the dead weight, the basis and hydro
cylinders weight and the live loads. In the analysis of the load
distribution over the leverage, caused by live loads and basis
weight, Fig. 5, the following is considered:
- position of the line of attack of he basis weight and the live
load, to the wheel is
variable and depend on the leverage configuration,
- position of the live load is eccentric to
