1.4 DESIGN CRITERIA

1.4.1 General

a. Design and manufacture a complete, new outdoor intake gantry crane.

The existing spillway stoplog lifting beam is new and replacement is not required.

b. Equip the crane trolley with a main hoist and one trolley drive. The crane must be driven by a minimum of two gantry trucks with a minimum of half the wheels driven.

c. Design the gantry crane to be operable year-round. Gantry crane is in an outdoor environment on the North Santiam River.

d. Electrical equipment is covered in SECTION 41 01 20.73 26.

e. If there are conflicts between design criteria listed here and listed in referenced documents, the most conservative approaches will govern.

1.4.2 Functions

The gantry crane must provide for the functions and operations given below, within the dimensional constraints as shown:

a. Operate on existing crane rails that run the full length of the spillway dam and intake deck. Rails are 80# American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) installed on top of the intake/spillway deck are completely exposed, spaced 21 feet 9 inches center to center.

b. Connect to the existing: penstock stoplog lifting beam, and spillway stoplog lifting beam. New rigging, (i.e., slings, shackles, and pins) may be required for connection to existing lifting beams. This rigging will be paid for under Item 0003. Design block such that it can operate in all locations necessary to pick and place the stoplogs, including their storage and in-use slots.

c. Handle and move the penstock stoplogs and the spillway stoplogs between their deployed positions and storage locations using the main hoist of the gantry crane.

41 01 26.74 26-7

d. Perform miscellaneous maintenance lifts with Owner-furnished rigging of spillway gate machinery equipment (note the southernmost spillway gate machinery is beyond the travel limits of the gantry), and the penstock gate hoist machinery equipment. The intent for this function is to allow the trolley to travel downstream into the overhanging cantilevered section to hoist spillway and penstock gate machinery, and tool loads for maintenance purposes.

e. Handle and transport hand rails, spillway, and hatch covers along the entire deck. Where picked load and location prevent the use of the main hoist, the tool hoist may be used to perform these functions.

f. The jib hoist must provide for the functions and operations given below, within the dimensional constraints as shown:

(1) Remove the trolley machinery housing and lower it to the deck.

(2) Remove the northernmost stoplog hatch covers and move them to a location of the deck that does not block the storage slot or roadway access.

(3) Hoist tools, lubrication containers, and equipment between the deck roadway, the upper crane walkway, and the machinery trolley within the capacities of the crane and walkway.

1.4.3 Data, Capacities, Speeds, and Travel

Data, capacities, travel distances, and rated speeds of the crane must be per SECTION 41 01 20.71 26 NEW INTAKE GANTRY CRANE DATA, TESTING AND

TRAINING.

1.4.4 Design

The contract drawings indicate the general arrangement and outline of the gantry, the clearances necessitated by the powerhouse structure, and other pertinent features. Furnish the detailed design in conformity with the design criteria and other requirements specified herein. Submit design calculations and detailed shop drawings per the requirements in paragraph SUBMISSION OF CRANE DESIGN DATA and in accordance with the requirements of

SECTION 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES.

1.4.5 Loading

1.4.5.1 General

Base the design loads on the rated capacities specified in SECTION 41 01 20.71 26 NEW INTAKE GANTRY CRANE DATA, TESTING AND TRAINING. For the purpose of design of structural and mechanical parts, take loads resulting from the maximum torque of the motors as 200 percent of the rated full-load torque of the motor. Compute loads as follows, with the trolley in such positions as will give maximum loading or stress in any part of the crane and with due allowance for eccentricity of application. Place the loads for all tractive and collision forces at the centers mass or distribute according to mass for the inertial forces from dead loads and at the center of drums for the inertial forces due to live loads.

1.4.5.2 Dead Loads

41 01 26.74 26-8

a. The dead load of the gantry crane must include the weight of the crane structure, trolley, and the weight of all machinery and equipment permanently attached to the crane frame except the weight of the movable blocks, lifting beam, and ropes included with the live load.

b. Dead load factor - This factor covers only the dead loads of the crane, trolley, and its associated equipment and must be taken according to CMAA.

1.4.5.3 Live Loads

a. Hoist Loads - The live load on the main hoist must include the rated capacity of 40 tons plus the weight of the load blocks and ropes.

b. Travel Loads - The travel load on the main hoist for trolley travel and gantry travel operations must be equal to the rated capacity (40 tons) on the hook plus the weight of the load blocks and ropes.

c. Vertical Impact - Impact must be taken as a minimum 10 percent of the hoist load. As specified in CMAA standard, the hoist load factor is related to hoist speed, which could result in a higher impact load. If this is the case, use the most conservative load.

d. Wind Load - Apply wind loads specified below to the horizontally projected area of the crane, lifting beam, and intake gate where applicable. No shielding effect of one element by another must be considered where the distance between them exceeds four times the smaller projected dimension of the windward element.

e. Tractive Horizontal Forces, Trolley - Limit the forces resulting from the acceleration or deceleration of the trolley to 10 percent of the sum of the travel load and trolley dead load. Impose the force on the crane in the direction of trolley travel. Also, as specified in CMAA standard, the travel drive inertia forces is related to acceleration and deceleration rate, and depends on the magnitude of torque applied to the drive wheels. Use the force that provides the most conservative value.

f. Tractive Horizontal Forces, Gantry - Limit the forces resulting from the acceleration or deceleration of the gantry crane to 10 percent of the sum of the travel load and dead load. Impose the force on the crane in the direction of gantry travel. Also, as specified in CMAA standard, the travel drive inertia forces is related to acceleration and deceleration rate, and depends on the magnitude of torque applied to the drive wheels. Use the force that provides the most conservative value.

g. Collision Horizontal Forces - Collision forces with rail stops must be taken as the forces produced by such collision with the trolley or gantry traveling at the lowest speed point with power on. Only the dead load will be considered as contributing to the collision forces.

h. Minimum design snow load: 60 LBS per square foot.

1.4.5.4 Combination of Loads

Design the structural parts of the crane for the following load

41 01 26.74 26-9 combinations and unit stresses:

a. Category I Load Cases. The unit stresses resulting from the following load combination(s) must not exceed the unit stresses specified in paragraph UNIT STRESSES:

(1) Dead, hoist, vertical impact, horizontal trolley tractive, and 10 psf operating wind load applied in the direction of trolley travel.

(2) Dead, hoist, vertical impact, horizontal gantry tractive, and 10 psf operating wind load applied in direction of gantry travel.

b. Category II Load Cases. The unit stresses resulting from the following load combination(s) must not exceed the unit stresses specified in paragraph UNIT STRESSES increased by 25%:

(1) Dead, hoist, vertical impact, 10 psf wind, and horizontal collision forces.

(2) Dead, 30 psf wind applied to crane only. (Stability Load Case.)

c. Category III Load Cases. The unit stresses resulting from the following load case(s) must not exceed 90 percent of the yield points of the materials involved save compressive stresses in column members must not exceed the unit stresses specified in paragraph UNIT STRESSES increased by 25%:

(1) Dead load, 10 psf wind to crane only, and the forces produced by the maximum torque of the hoist motor.

(2) Dead, hoist, 30 psf wind.

1.4.6 Unit Stresses

1.4.6.1 Structural Frame

a. The structural frame of the gantry crane must include beams, girders, columns, and other members carrying primary loads. Allowable stresses in structural parts (except bolts and welds) for the beams, girders, columns, and other members carrying primary loads inclusive gantry and trolley frames are defined as the lesser of 45% of the yield or 75% of AISC 316 allowable stresses for ASTM A36/A36M, ASTM A992/A992M or ASTM A572/A572M grade 50 steel. Design allowable stresses in structural parts not carrying primary loads to be no more than 100% of AISC 316 allowable stresses.

b. Design the structure to take into account the most severe combinations of loads as described above in 1.4.5.4, including the full travel range of the trolley/hoist located in the most adverse upstream and downstream position; do not exceed the allowable stresses as outlined in this section. Note: Theses loads are to be considered as a minimum; Contractor must complement these loads with the appropriate standards as outlined above in section 1.2 REFERENCES.

1.4.6.2 Bolts

41 01 26.74 26-10

Allowable stresses in bolts must be no more than 75% of AISC 316 allowable stresses. Design allowable stresses in structural bolts not connecting members carrying primary loads to be no more than 100% of AISC 316 allowable stresses.

1.4.6.3 Welds

Design of welded joints must be in accordance with the applicable provisions of AWS D1.1/D1.1M, except that allowable stresses in welds must be no more than 75% of AISC 316 allowable stresses, and provisions for repeated stress is not required except as noted elsewhere. Design allowable stresses in welds not connecting members carrying primary loads to be no more than 100% of AISC 316 allowable stresses.

1.4.6.4 Detailing Requirements

The detailing of structural components and connections must conform to the requirements of AISC 316.

1.4.6.5 Mechanical Parts of the Crane

Design mechanical parts of the crane as follows:

a. for rated load, with a factor of safety of 5 based on the ultimate strength of the materials, and

b. for maximum motor torque of the motor as limited by the VFD controls per SECTION 41 01 20.73 26, such that resultant stresses in each part or component do not exceed 75 percent of the yield strength of the materials involved, unless otherwise specified in component-specific paragraphs below.

1.4.6.6 Stress Concentration Factors

Use stress concentration factors where applicable. Reduction of allowable stresses to compensate for repeated cycles of loading is not required.

1.4.6.7 Wire Rope Stresses

In determining the size of hoisting ropes, use the maximum stress resulting from the rated load; take into consideration the overall efficiency of the hoist tackle in the blocks and other parts. The stresses must not be greater than 1/5 the nominal breaking strength of the rope. In addition, the rope tension resulting from the maximum torque of the motor selected must not exceed 0.7 of the nominal breaking strength of the rope.

1.4.6.8 Drum Stresses

The combined bending and crushing stress at rated load for the drums must comply with the requirements of the "Mechanical Parts of the Crane" paragraph. In addition, the stresses in the drums must not exceed 75 percent of the yield point of the material with loads resulting from the maximum torque of the motor as limited by the VFD controls per SECTION 41 01 20.73 26 NEW INTAKE GANTRY CRANE ELECTRICAL WORK. Design drum shafts in accordance with paragraph "SHAFTING". Allowable stresses of drum welds, other than drum shell longitudinal and circumferential splice welds, must not exceed 4,000 pounds per square inch. Perform drum buckling/crushing

41 01 26.74 26-11 calculations per Roark's equations, with a minimum bucking safety factor of 2.

1.4.7 Stability

a. The gantry crane must have a minimum factor of safety of 1.25 against overturning under each condition of loading stated in paragraph Combination of Loads, and must consider the full travel range of the trolley/hoist located in the most adverse upstream and downstream position. Provide counterweights if necessary to obtain the required stability.

b. Also, as specified in CMAA 70 (2015) clause 3.13.3, a gantry crane must have minimum Stability Factors against Overturning (SFO) when the specified loads are applied in the least favorable manner. The SFO is the ratio of the total moment tending to cause overturning:

(1) Normal Operating Loads, including Inertia Forces from Drives (IFD) and Operating Wind Loads (WLO); SFO>/=1.50.

(2) Normal Operating Loads, Operating Wind Loads (WLO) and collision Forces (CF) at 40% travel speed; SFO>/=1.33.

(3) Normal Operating Loads, Operating Wind Loads (WLO) and collision Forces (CF) at 100% travel speed; SFO>/=1.25.

(4) Load Hang-Up condition of the Hoist Load Block or Lifted Load with Operating Winds Loads (WLO); SFO>/=1.10.

(5) Out of Service Stored Wind Load (WLS); SFO>/=1.10.

c. Consider the loads listed above in paragraph 1.4.5.4, Combination of Loads, and CMAA-listed loads as a minimum; complement these loads with the appropriate safety due to stability as outlined above in this section and CMAA 70.

d. If there are conflicts between stability design criteria for the minimum factor of safety listed here and CMAA 70, the most conservative approaches will govern.

1.4.8 Stiffness

Deviations from the nominal span, center to center of the gantry rails, due to the overall deflection of the gantry must not exceed plus or minus 5/8 inches from the rated load to no load, respectively. Compute the deflection with the assumption that the base of the legs are pinned on one side and roller supported on the opposite side. Calculate deflection both parallel and transverse to the crane rails. Consider the stiffness of the gantry frame when determining the computed misalignment of mating gear teeth under the limitation of paragraph GEARS AND SPEED REDUCERS.

1.4.9 Use of Cast Iron

Do not use cast iron of a class less than 30 for any parts of the crane except for counterweights. Cast iron of class 30 or higher may be used for gear cases. Brake shoes and brake wheels must conform to materials specified in SECTION 41 01 20.73 26 NEW INTAKE GANTRY CRANE ELECTRICAL

Utilize corresponding lock washers with high strength bolted connections ASTM F436, nuts ASTM A563, etc., conforming to requirements of AISC.

c. Use ASTM A307, ASTM A325, or machine bolts for bolted connections on the cab, ladders, guard rails, and similar structural items.

d. Hold all speed reducers, bearing bases, and pillow blocks securely in place by one of the following methods:

(1) Fitted bolts installed with plain washers and double nuts.

(2) Machine bolts and dowels. The dowels must be of such size as to adequately locate the device and resist the total shearing forces. Install the bolts with nuts and lockwashers.

(3) Shear blocks installed at all four corners of the reducer, bearing base, or pillow block, with welds adequately sized to resist shearing forces. Shear blocks must be of sufficient width and welds adequately sized that they do not roll over if lateral forces are placed at the top edge of the blocks.
