Description
Built for crane operators, lift planners, and ground crews who need outrigger pad sizing on the iron - not a dashboard you log into.
WHAT IT DOES
Computes ground pressure under a single outrigger pad and checks pass/fail against the allowable soil bearing capacity and the pad material's allowable stress. Compares up to 10 saved configurations side-by-side for a multi-pick lift. Reference tables for soil types and common pad sizes are built in for quick cross-check.
INPUTS
Load per outrigger (lb)
Pad shape: Square, Round, or Rectangular
Pad dimension(s) (in)
Pad material: Timber, Oak, Steel Plate, HDPE, Composite
Allowable soil bearing (psf)
RETURNS
Pad area (sq in and sq ft)
Ground pressure (psf and psi)
Pass/fail vs. allowable soil bearing
Pass/fail vs. pad material allowable stress
Minimum required pad side (in) when over the limit
Multi-load comparison rows for up to 10 configurations
Soil bearing capacity reference table (6 soil types)
Common pad size reference (2x2 to 6x6 ft, max load at varying soil bearing)
WHY THIS APP, NOT THE FREE ONES
Math is shown - every result lists the area, pressure, and the limit it is compared against.
Multi-load mode - save the four-corner configuration for an asymmetric pick and review at once.
Works offline - yard moves, off-road sites, no cell service. Always available.
No login. No ads. No telemetry. No subscription.
PRICING
$4.99. Pay once, own it. Lifetime access on iPhone, iPad, and Mac via Family Sharing.
NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR
A site-specific ground assessment by a qualified person. A geotechnical report for soft sites, fill, or organic layers. The crane manufacturer's outrigger-pad guidance for your specific machine. This app is a quick-reference tool, not a replacement for engineered ground bearing analysis.
