1. A crane is lifting a 40' shipping container with a mass of 4,000 kg until the bottom of the container is 100' in the air. The remaining dimensions of the container are 8' wide and 10' tall. The load is exposed to wind gusts of 25 mph, broadside, on the largest face of the container. If there are two taglines attached to the load as shown below (not to scale), what maximum possible tension is expected in the taglines during a gust? Assume sea level dry air density and the worst-case loading scenario. Ignore the very thin rigging. CAME AA 2. Electric vehicles have been the talk of the town for several years but have yet to be widely adopted. These vehicles create new challenges, especially for firefighters. EV and electric semi fires are much more difficult to fight. Give us two ideas that we have never heard before that firefighters could use to combat fires with multiple EVs or semis. 1.
