# Industrial Specification: Extension Sections

## 1. Technical Definition
Modular segments that extend the reach of a jib crane's boom.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0-150 kN·m bending moment at 2.5 m extension, 0-25 kN axial load**. Failure boundary: **Yield stress of 355 MPa for S355 structural steel at 20°C ambient temperature**, Mechanism: **Euler buckling instability under combined axial compression and bending moment, governed by slenderness ratio λ &gt; 89 for pinned-pinned boundary conditions**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Thin-Wall Pressure Vessel Stress Analysis**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\sigma_h = \frac{P \cdot D}{2t}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Determines the hoop stress boundary to prevent rupture.

## 5. Engineering Risks & FAQ
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 

### Q: What are extension sections used for in jib cranes?
**A**: Extension sections are modular segments that attach to a jib crane's existing boom to increase its working radius and reach, allowing the crane to service larger areas without requiring a complete crane replacement.

### Q: What materials are used in these extension sections?
**A**: Our extension sections are manufactured from high-strength steel, providing durability, structural integrity, and load-bearing capacity while maintaining a relatively lightweight profile for optimal crane performance.

### Q: How do I determine if extension sections are compatible with my existing jib crane?
**A**: Compatibility depends on your crane's specifications including boom dimensions, connection points, and load capacity. Our extension sections feature standardized connection plates and can be customized with appropriate stiffeners and main beam configurations to match your equipment.
