Lattice boom mobile cranes are mainly used to move heavy payloads with a large hoisting radius. During this work, crane motions cause dynamic forces on the crane's structure. In order to guarantee the safety of cranes, exact calculations are absolutely essential for the boom system. The calculation standards stipulate the use of special dynamic factors to estimate the dynamic loads. Several research projects have shown, that the standards often describe the dynamic effects only approximately. In order to calculate the dynamic behaviour accurately, without a disproportionate increase in computing time, special vibration models have been developed in a current research project. This paper presents a new vibration model for the process of hoisting suspended loads. The model is based on the response spectrum method and describes the dynamic effects in an exact way.
