Question #351
What is a "tipping line"?
Co to jest "krawędź wywrotu"?
a
a structural component specified by the platform designer
element konstrukcyjny wyznaczony przez projektanta podestu
b
the outermost edge of the platform's base
skrajna krawędź podstawy podestu
c
a component protecting against the consequences of overturning
element zabezpieczający przed skutkami wywrotu
d
a line defined by the platform's support points
linia wyznaczona przez punkty podparcia podestu
Correct answer
Why?
The tipping line (krawędź wywrotu) joins adjacent support points and is the line about which the platform can overturn. It does not necessarily coincide with the outer edge of the chassis, because the actual support locations determine it.
