Submit design calculations and detailed shop drawings in accordance with the requirements in this SECTION and SECTION 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES.

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

1.5.2 Definitions

a. Crane Appurtenances: Those structures or mechanical features ancillary to the crane which do not carry primary loads and are attached to the crane structural frames or are needed to allow the crane to function.

b. Full Load Torque: The torque produced by a motor operating at its rated horsepower and speed.

c. Primary Load Carrying Member: Those members that carry the principal loads during normal operations.

d. Principal Loads: All of the loads having an influence on engineering strength analysis are regarded as principal loads, namely the dead loads, which are always present; the hoist load, acting

SECTION 41 22 13.72 26 Page 11 during each cycle; and the inertia forces acting during the movements of cranes, crane components, and hoist loads.

e. Structural Frame: The structural frame includes beams, girders, columns, machinery decks, and other members carrying principal loads.

1.5.3 Data, Capacities, Speeds, and Travel

Data, capacities, travel distances, and rated speeds of the crane must be as per SECTION 41 22 13.71 26 INTAKE GANTRY CRANE DATA, TESTING AND

TRAINING.

1.5.4 Design Loads and Combination of Loads

1.5.4.1 General

Base the design loads on the rated capacities specified in SECTION 41 22 13.71 26 INTAKE GANTRY CRANE DATA, TESTING AND TRAINING. For the purpose of design of structural and mechanical parts, loads resulting from the maximum torque of the motors are defined 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 of mass or distributed according to mass for the inertial forces from dead loads and at the center of drums for the inertial forces due to live loads.

1.5.4.2 Dead Loads

The dead load of the gantry crane must include the weight of the crane structure, and the weight of all machinery and equipment permanently attached to the crane frame. Dead loads do not include the weight of the movable blocks, lifting beam, and wire ropes.

1.5.4.3 Live Loads

a. Hoist Loads - The live load on each hoist must include the rated capacity specified in SECTION 41 22 13.71 26 NEW INTAKE GANTRY CRANE DATA, TESTING AND TRAINING, plus the weight of all wire rope, rigging, load blocks, and lifting devices.

b. Travel Loads - The travel load on the main hoist for trolley travel and gantry travel operations are equal to the maximum anticipated live load from bulkhead/gate handlingon the main hoist during trolley or gantry travel.

c. Vertical Impact - Impact must be taken as 10 percent of the hoist load.

d. Wind Load - Apply wind loads specified below to the horizontally projected area of the crane, universal lifting beam and bulkhead where applicable. Wind loads from the bulkhead are applied to the crane frame during stability cases. No shielding effect of one element by another is to be considered where the distance between them exceeds four times the smaller projected dimension of the windward element.

e. Tractive Horizontal Forces, Trolley - The forces resulting from

SECTION 41 22 13.72 26 Page 12 the acceleration or deceleration of the trolley are limited to a maximum of 10 percent of the sum of the travel load and trolley dead load. For the design of structural components, apply tractive forces equal to 10 percent of the sum of the travel load and trolley dead load.

f. Tractive Horizontal Forces, Gantry - The forces resulting from the acceleration or deceleration of the gantry crane are limited to a maximum of 10 percent of the sum of the travel load and dead load.

For the design of structural components, apply tractive forces equal to 10 percent of the sum of the travel load and dead load.

g. Collision Horizontal Forces - Collision forces with rail stops are taken as the forces produced by such collision with the trolley or gantry traveling at 40 percent rated speed with power on. The weight of the intake gate/bulkhead must also be considered (added) to the dead load for the collision horizontal forces.

h. Asymmetric Hoist Loads - The load resulting from maximum torque of the motor applied to one of two lower blocks during motor stall event (caused by jammed lifting beam in gate/bulkhead slot during raising).

1.5.4.4 Combinations of Loads

Design the structural components of the crane for the following load combinations:

a. Category I Load Combinations.

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

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

b. Category II Load Combinations. (Stability Load Cases)

(1) Dead, main hoist, vertical impact, 10 psf wind applied in the direction of trolley travel, 10 psf wind applied to the full surface area of the intake gates or bulkhead in the direction of trolley travel, and horizontal collision forces.

(2) Dead, 40 psf wind applied to crane only.

(3) Dead, auxiliary hoist, jib hoist, vertical impact, 10 psf wind applied in the direction of trolley travel, and horizontal collision forces.

c. Category III Load Combinations.

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

1.5.5 Structural Design Criteria

The structural components of the crane include beams, girders, columns, machinery decks, and other members carrying primary loads in addition to ancillary structural features such as but not limited to cabs, platforms, access ways, ladders, and stairs that are not carrying primary loads. The

SECTION 41 22 13.72 26 Page 13 detailing of structural components and connections must conform to the requirements of AISC 325 . At minimum, all structural components must be designed per the requirements of AISC 325 following the Allowable Strength Design methodology except as described below:

a. For Category I Load Combinations, the required strengths resulting from the Category I Load Combination(s) in all structural components carrying primary loads must not exceed 75% of AISC 325 allowable strengths.

b. For Category II Load Combinations, the required strengths resulting from the Category II Load Combination(s) in all structural components carrying primary loads must not exceed AISC 325 allowable strengths.

c. For Category III Load Combinations, the required strengths resulting from the Category III Load combinations(s) in all structural components carrying primary loads except columns must not exceed 90 percent of the nominal strength. Columns (members in compression or combined compression and bending) will not be permitted to exceed AISC 325 allowable strengths.

d. For structural welds and bolts carrying primary loads, the required strengths must not exceed 75% of AISC 325 allowable strengths. For all other structural welds and bolts, the required strengths will not be permitted to exceed AISC 325 allowable strengths.

e. Welded connections must also comply with the applicable provisions of AWS D1.1/D1.1M.

1.5.5.1 Fatigue Design

Fatigue design must be addressed for conditions resulting in high numbers of load cycles including excessive vibration. Design structural features and connections subject to fatigue loading conditions per the applicable provisions of AISC 325 Appendix 3 "Fatigue." For crane appurtenances, provide bracing and support such that excessive vibration does not occur during normal crane usage.

1.5.5.2 Stability

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. Counterweights must be provided if necessary to obtain the required stability.

1.5.6 General Stiffness Requirements

The stiffness of the crane structure, structural components, and machinery must be considered when determining the computed misalignment of mating gear teeth under the limitation of paragraph GEARS AND SPEED REDUCERS.

1.5.6.1 Gantry Frame Stiffness

Deviations from the nominal span, center to center of the gantry rails, due to the overall deflection of the gantry frame must not exceed plus or minus 5/8 inches from the rated load to no load, respectively. The deflection must be computed with the assumption that the base of the legs are pinned on one side and roller supported on the opposite side.

SECTION 41 22 13.72 26 Page 14

Calculate deflection both parallel and transverse to the crane rails.

1.5.6.2 Trolley Deflections

Deflection of the trolley structure frame members are limited to L/360.

Primary frame members providing support between trolley rails must not exceed 1/4 inches vertical deflection measured as difference from dead load to rated load condition. Specify hoist drum shaft bearings with proper float to accommodate the change in center distance.

1.5.6.3 Bases

Mounting bases (i.e. machinery bases) must provide a suitable load path from the equipment being supported to the frame of the trolley or crane, as applicable. Bases must be of a suitable stiffness to provide support needed to attain all specified and manufacturer equipment alignment requirements.

Components carrying hoisting loads not identified as part of the structural frames such as machinery bases with low aspect ratio such that buckling is not a failure mode, trucks (unless wheels are mounted directly to a trolley frame member or gantry frame sill beam) are also considered mechanical components.

b. Mechanical parts of the crane also include ancillary mechanical features not carrying hoisting/travel loads (e.g. rotating machinery covers/guards, rail sweeps, wind speed direction mounting fixtures).

1.5.8.2 Mechanical Equipment Allowable Stresses

Unless specified otherwise, design mechanical components of the crane for rated load, with a factor of safety of 5 based on the ultimate strength of the materials, provided that each part or component, including speed reducers but excluding wire rope, must be proportioned to withstand the stresses produced by the maximum torque of the motors with resultant
