    OFFSHORE HEAVY LIFTING PADEYE

 
Asymmetric geometry is used in Heavy Lifting, because the force is acting under an angle. In many cases an intermediate
spreader bar is used between the crane and the lift point. The spreader bar is used to ensure that the slings are acting
under an angle within the allowed range

this pinned connection the force has its origin at the centre of the shackle pin cross-section, which is acting in the centre of
the pinhole. Shackle connecting the padeye and sling, working under an angle . The pinhole centre lies at a height above
the bottom of the main plate. Because the sling is acting under an angle in the plane of the main plate, the force at the
pinhole will be under the same angle. Due to this angle of the force , the force can be divided into a vertical component Fy and a horizontal component
Fx. Because the horizontal force components is acting at a height , this will result in an in-plane bending moment also.
