3.16. Crane clearance envelope. To allow for the safe travel of overhead traveling cranes, jib cranes, and hoists the Contractor shall not modify existing buildings or place equipment or temporary structures in any way, which would affect the working envelope of overhead traveling cranes, jib cranes, and hoists. Minimum clearances for working envelopes are:

3.16.1. Top clearance. A minimum of three (3) inches between the highest point of the crane and the lowest overhead obstruction must be maintained. In areas where truss sag may become a significant factor, the Government will evaluate the need to increase the minimum clearance.

3.16.2. Side clearance. A minimum of two (2) inches between the end of the crane and side obstructions (building columns, knee braces, walls, etc.), assuming the crane is skewed in the worst case situation on the runway rails or when jib cranes are rotated, shall be maintained. Piping, electrical conduits, etc. must not reduce this clearance.

3.17. Lift points. The equipment shall be readily liftable via lift points meeting the requirements of this section to allow lifting by crane during equipment off-loading, installation, operation, and removal. Lift points shall be located, designed, and marked per the following to ensure the equipment is readily liftable when it arrives.

3.17.1. Integral (i.e., not bolt-on), lifting point items such as lugs, thru-holes, pad-eyes, trunnions, and ISO container corner fittings are suitable for use at PSNS & IMF.

3.17.2. Removable lift points such as swivel hoist rings, eye bolts, etc., are not preferred for use at PSNS & IMF due to the corrosive environment. To be permitted, the contractor must receive approval from the Receiving Activity POC prior to contract award.

3.17.3. Lift points shall accommodate ASME B30.26 common rigging gear (e.g., shackles, wire rope pendants/grommets, etc.).

3.17.4. Lift point allowable strength shall be based on ASME BTH-1 (latest revision), Category B, Service Class 0.

3.17.5. Welding involved shall comply with applicable AWS Standards.

3.17.6. When possible, to maximize stability, locate lift point(s) symmetrically around, and above, the Center of Gravity (CG), on the same horizontal plane. This helps ensure equal length slings converging to a common point will lift the equipment visually level.

3.17.7. Locate the lift points such that the routing of rigging gear is clear of obstructions. This is to avoid damaging equipment, chaffing, etc.

3.17.8. The minimum lift point Working Load Limit (WLL) shall be based on the entire weight of the equipment plus 10%. Account for additional loads induced by 45° sling angles with respect to horizontal.

3.17.8.1. Lift points for three- or four-point lifts shall be sized such that any two points carry the entire load based on worse case load distribution with respect to center of gravity.

3.17.8.2. For padeyes, align their primary planes toward the CG so that the slings do not pull out of plane by more than 5°. Exceptions may be acceptable if they are designed to account for the resultant out-of-plane loading.

3.17.8.3. The use of spreaders or strongbacks is not preferred. If spreaders or strongbacks are required, a lift sketch detailing the required spread, capacity and orientation of that gear shall be submitted.

3.17.9. Lift point supporting structures shall be designed to sustain the various loads imparted by the lifting arrangement.

3.17.10. Provide all arrangement drawings, lift sketches, calculations required for the design and usage, and manufacture’s documentation of the lift points.
