hydraulic lifting ram
hydraulic lifting ram
(OP)
hi all, i am having a problem understanding a basic concept, I have a length of pole on a hinged base in a horizontal position. the pole is approx 1m in the air. A pair of rams have the job of lifting the pole, they are pinned to the pole near the hinge and on to the floor on a base plate, so a triangle betweent the vertical, the horizontal pole and the rams at angle x is created. HOw do i calculate the forces required to lift the pole from its horizontal position? thanks.

can't tell from your description where x is exactly.

Please upload a drawing to get the answer to a very simple problem. in statics (assuming low acceleration of the rod.
