Slewing bearing connect two profiles
(OP)
Hello Engineeres :)
I have a problem with connecting two profiles with sleewing bearing. Since I'm fresh engineer with bachelor degree and enrolled on my master studies I have one project bilding a crane. That crane is made from two "hands" connected with a slewing bearing and I dont know the best way to connect them because of torsion and flexing. So if anybody have some idea or suggestion please share :) thank you!

See all the holes? Those are for bolts. You should plan to use lots of them, like those guys did. Alternatively, you could weld them, but then the bearing might not slew any more, and it also makes it more difficult to repair/replace it.

All solutions are welcome it is just for educational purposes crane and I need to come with "great" solution to my professor. But I'm ut of my mind, because it seems that I sholud not cut my profile too much. With every cut it loses his strenght properties such as lower walue of Iy, Wy, Iz, Wz and other section properties.

If you are reinventing the wheel simply for the sake of reinventing the wheel, then you're going to have to dig around for inspiration. Or know something more about what problem, or the nature of the problem, you're trying to solve.
