Lifting Beam Calculation

This document summarizes the design of lifting lugs on a beam used to lift a pipe. It provides the key load parameters, geometry of the lugs, and calculations of stresses in the lugs and beam. The stresses in the lugs and beam under the expected loads are all found to be below the allowable limits, indicating the design is acceptable for safely lifting the pipe.
