Cranes - General design - Part 3-6: Limit states and proof of competence of machinery - Hydraulic cylinders
This document is to be used together with the other generic parts of EN 13001 series of standards, see Annex E, as well as pertinent crane type product EN standards, and as such they specify general conditions, requirements and methods to, by design and theoretical verification, prevent mechanical hazards of hydraulic cylinders that are part of the load carrying structures of cranes. Hydraulic piping, hoses and connectors used with the cylinders are not within the scope of this document, as well as cylinders made from other material than carbon steel.
NOTE 1 Specific requirements for particular crane types are given in the appropriate European product standards, see Annex E.
The significant hazardous situations and hazardous events that could result in risks to persons during intended use are identified in Annex F. Clauses 4 to 7 of this document provide requirements and methods to reduce or eliminate these risks:
a) exceeding the limits of strength (yield, ultimate, fatigue);

Introduction
This European Standard has been prepared to be a harmonized standard to provide one means for the
mechanical design and theoretical verification of cranes to conform with the essential health and safety
requirements of the Machinery Directive, as amended. This standard also establishes interfaces
between the user (purchaser) and the designer, as well as between the designer and the component
manufacturer, in order to form a basis for selecting cranes and components.This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are
covered are indicated in the scope of this standard.When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B
standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other
standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C
standard.---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------

4.2 Materials for hydraulic cylinders
4.2.1 General requirements
!The materials for cylinder tubes and piston rods shall fulfil the following requirements:"
!— The impact toughness shall be tested in accordance with EN ISO 148-1:2016 and shall meet the
requirements stated in EN 13001-3-1:2012+A2:2018. Samples shall be cut out in the
longitudinal direction. For cylinder tubes and tubes for pressurized piston rods, samples shall
also be cut out in the transversal direction. The samples shall be prepared such that the axis of
the notch is perpendicular to the surface of the tube."Key
1 sample cut out in longitudinal direction
2 sample cut out in transversal direction
Figure 4 — Sample for impact toughness testing
!— If the material thickness does not allow samples to be cut out in the transversal direction, the
tube material shall instead pass a flattening test in accordance with EN ISO 8492:2013. Two
flattening tests are required for welded tubes, one with the weld aligned with the press
direction and one where the weld is placed 90 degrees from the press direction. The tube
section shall be flattened down to a height H given by:"1+⋅C t
( )
where
!C is a factor that depends on the yield strength of the tube,

D is the outer diameter of the tube;
t is the wall thickness of the tube.
!Material used in other parts shall meet the requirements stated in EN 13001-3-1:2012+A2:2018."
4.2.2 Grades and qualities!European Standards specify materials and specific values. This standard gives a preferred selection.
Steels in accordance with the following European Standards shall be used as material for cylinder tubes
and piston rods:"!— EN ISO 683-1:2018;
— EN ISO 683-2:2018;
— EN 10277-2:2008;
— EN 10297-1:2003;
— EN 10305-1:2016;
— EN 10305-2:2016."
!Alternatively, other steel grades and qualities than those listed in this clause may be used as
material for cylinder tubes and piston rods, provided that the following conditions apply:"
— the design value of f is limited to f /1,1 for materials with f /f < 1,1;y u u y
— the percentage elongation at fracture A % ≥ 14 % on a gauge length LS5,65× (where S is
0 0 0the original cross-sectional area);
!Grades and qualities of materials used in other parts of cylinders or mounting interfaces of cylinders
shall be selected in accordance with EN 13001-3-1:2012+A2:2018."5 Proof of static strength
5.1 General
!A proof of static strength by calculation is intended to prevent excessive deformations due to
yielding of the material, elastic instability and fracture of structural members or connections. Dynamic
