![]() I may have asked this before, but I have A Project in mind. This is much simpler than the last time, when I wanted to build 4 humanoid robots to pick up a shipping container at the corners and move it. "Hup, hup, hup, ... detail halt!" What I want to do this time is to just "slide an I-beam under the outbuilding, attach a wheeled unit to each end, pivot the building and roll it to when I want it." No doubt "A simple procedure involving lasers." I'm sure. Somewhere. But, my question is: load capacity of the units. Assume a GW of 3 tons, does that meant that each wheeled unit has to be able to 'carry' a three ton load, or can I divide the gross weight by 4, add a "fudge factor" and hope for the best? This is one of those things I'd talk to one of the old guys, but I find I am one of the old guys. tschus pyotr -- pyotr filipivich "What was I, before I was what I am, and will I be when I'm not? You were what you are before you are what you is, and you will be what you ain't." |
