Abstract

This study examines how high-density polyethylene (HDPE) mats, with their low flexural stiffness, affect the distribution of concentrated loads under crane outriggers. A case study comparing the analysis of beams on elastic foundations for the HDPE mat thicknesses 80, 80+80, 80+80+80 mm and 80 mm thick steel is presented.
