Traveling Limestone Stacker - Louisiana
 
Structural design of a double boom stacker for stockpiling limestone.

The stacker travels by rail along a 1000' long track, discharging successive layers of limestone to build two storage piles 1000' long x 50' high.

Unique features considered unbalanced loads and counterweight calculations required for stability for various loadings.
