 DESIGN OF GANTRY GIRDER

CAPACITY OF CRANE = 10 tons

Longitudinal spacing of column= L = 10 m

Centre to Centre distance of gantry girders= B = 22 m
Wheel spacing of Trolley = a = 3.5 m
Edge Distance = g= 0.3 m
Weight to be lifted Wk = ### KN
Weight of Crane Girder Wc = ### KN
Weight of trolley Car Wr = 30 KN
Impact Factor F1 = 25 % ( For EOT Crane)
Lateral Surge Factor F2 = 2.5 %
Longitudinal Drag Factor F3 = 5 %
No. of wheels of Crane Girder = 4

a L

1. Wheel load due to Various Components

a) From Crane Girder =Wc/4 = W1= 50 KN

b) From trolley car & lifting load =(Wk+Wr)(B-g)/2B= W2 = 64.114 KN

c) Impact Load =F1(Wk)(B-g)/2B*100 = W3 = 12.33 KN

Total wheel Load = W1+W2+W3 W= 126.44 KN

2.Lateral Load
Lateral Load from each wheel is transmitted
to two wheels which are on the forward side =
= F2 (Wk+Wr)/2*100 = FL = 1.625 KN
3.Total Drag force

=2*W(F3/100) Fg = 13 KN

4. Vertical bending moment

W W

e
L/2-a/4 a

The maximum bending moment on the beam will

occur when one of the load is at a distance of x=(L/2-a/4) = 4.125 m
from the support

a)Maximum BM due to vertical loads=2W(L/2-a/4)2 = M1 = 451.3 KNm

L

b)Bending moment due to drag

e= 300+150 450 mm 0.45 m

Reaction due to drag force =Fge/L = Ra = 0.569 KN

Bending moment due to drag =Ra(L/2-a/4) = M2 = 2.3471 KNm

c)Bending moment due to self wt

Let self wt. + rail load = Wg = 1 KN/m

Bending moment due to self wt=WgLx/2-Wgx2/2 M3= 12.117 KNm

Total design vertical moment=M1+M2+M3 = Mv = 465.77 KNm

5.Reaction on Column Support/Corbel

At left support = W/L(L-a/2) + WgL/2 = Ra = 109.32 KN

At right support = W/L(L+a/2) + WgL/2 = Rb = 153.57 KN

6.Horizontal moment

Bending moment due to impact =2FL(L/2-a/4) = Mh = 5.5301 KNm

7. Calculation of Stresses
Ixx of Combined section
Thickness of flange of ISMC = tf1 = 8.8 cm
Thickness of flange of I = tf2 = 1 cm
Thickness of web of ISMB = 0.6 cm
Area of ISMB = 109 cm2
Area of ISMC = 63.8 cm2
Depth of ISMB = 92 cm
Ixx of ISMB = 150315 cm4
Iyy of ISMB = 4246 cm4
Ixx of ISMC = 15200 cm4
Iyy of ISMC = 508 cm4
Flange Width of ISMB = 35 cm
Depth of ISMC = 400 mm
ryy 10.608 cm
To find new cg of the combined section

y = 36.19167 cm= 361.92 mm

Distance of cg from bottom = 65 cm = 646.08 mm
Ixx of Combined section = 253049.74 cm4 = 2530497400 mm4 = 0.0025 m4

Iyy of Combined section (Full section) = 19446 cm4 = 1.94E+08 mm4

Iyy of Combined section (Top Flange Only) = 18773 cm 4
1.88E+08 mm4
Vertical Compressive Stress on top fibres= sv = 66.615 N/mm2

Horizontal Compressive Stress sh = 11.783 N/mm2

8.Calculation of permissible stresses

a. ) In the vertical direction

D = 100.8 cm
T= 1 cm
D/T = 100.8
L/ryy = 94.266
From table of IS 800
sv' = 110 N/mm2
Section 2
a. ) In the horizontal direction sh' = 165 N/mm2

Section is okay

8. Check for combined stresses

sv /sv'+sh/sh' <= 1

= 0.677002 Section is adequate for combined stresses

9. Check for vertical deflection
