HTUPs should be designed carefully by considering the reliability of the platform andits material cost. Therefore, in this study, three different HTUP designs were compared by considering itsstress distribution at different operational positions and their costs. CATIA V5 and ANSYS Workbenchsoftware programs were used in order to prepare three-dimensional models of the platforms and theirstructural analyses. Structural analysis indicated that maximum von-Mises stress distribution of platformsare between 93,41 MPa and 210,29 MPa. The materials of the frame were selected according to stressdistribution. Material costs of the frames were compared and the results were presented, as well. It wasalso found that von-Mises stresses on the frame of the platform are higher at horizontal position than the45oinclined position.  CR - 1. Wu, J., Gao, J., Luo, Z., Brown, T.,2016.
