This
instruction
includes
the
design,
dimensioning, checking and drawing of an
industrial steel hall with a hoisting installation.
The roof of and the fronts consist of thin-walled
trapezoid steel plates and has the following
outward measurements.
The facades are provided all around with a glass
strip and big doors in the end wall. One of the
end walls can be opened entirely by means of
sliding doors. (These sliding doors do not have
to be detailed extensively.)
Photo Hall Corus Ijmuiden
This instruction is meant for students who have followed cie4115 Steel Structures 2 as well as
one of the coarses cie3211 Constructions of Buildings 1, cie4121 Steel Structures 3 or ie5126
Fatigue.
Because not all students have followed lectures on these subjects, new knowledge may have
to be applied to carry out the instruction. Emphasis is put on weighing of factors and arriving
at a certain construction, the form and the dimensioning of elements and verification of the
construction as to the constructive safety, the ultimate limit states and the serviceability limit
states.

rad pressure in kN
beam cylinder in mm
length contact area in mm
The matter is rather complex and limitation of the contact tension suffices. The wheel gives a
wheel impression on the rail. This impression, a surface, depends on the strength en hardness
of the two materials contacting each other, the rail and the wheel. Current values for the
allowable Hertz-tension for S235 = 650 N/mm2, cast steel = 850 N/mm2, forged steel =
950 N/mm2.
Application of this Hertz equation gives allowable rad pressures that are twice as high as
those that are normal with crane rails from S235, which leads to too rapid rail wear. To limit
wear and thus maintenance, the contact tension is substantially reduced. For a value of 70%
of the ultimate tensile strength of = 0.7 x 850 = 595 N/mm2, the following practical
calculation rule is found from the Hertz equation:
=
F
=
D 0, 005 D [kN ] D is the diameter and is rail width in mm
0, 75 108
For heavy and frequent traffic F = 0.04 D is maintained.
For little loaded crabs F = 0.06 D is maintained.
So, at a rad pressure F = 320 kN and a wheel diameter of D = 900 mm, at least an A100 is
required. As shown in the graph, this is already a heavy rail profile with little wear, because
the Hertz tension is kept low.
The above practical equation is represented in the graph shown below for a number of usual
rail profiles. In reality, the calculation is much more complex. In fact, per wheel, two
eccentric forces are directly coupled, namely a vertical and a horizontal force. Both
eccentricities lead to a torsional moment. Both forces lead to bending moments in the rail.
Moreover, both forces can locally lead to high tensions due to force inleidingen. The force
distribution greatly depends on the construction the rail is attached to, in this case the crane
gantry girder. In case of railways the basis is often an uniform rail bed constant. With a crane
gantry girder the stiffness is not uniform. In this exercise, using the table shown below
suffices.

F [kN]
Graph determination rail type related to the diameter travelling wheel, in mm, and the rad pressure in kN, based
on F = 0.005 Dl and a tension of 600 N/mm2.
For an overview of the normal A-rails and strips of hardwearing S600 see attachment, copied
from Stahl im Hochbau. The following remarks can be made about the choice between rails
and strips. The strip is cheap and (in case of non-frequent crane usage) can be easily attached
to the crane gantry by means of welding. If the crane is not used very often, a crane gantry
with a welded profile suffices. In case of heavy use, the clack welds will tear. The strip rail
then requires a lot of maintenance and replacing it will be expensive. In such a case it is
preferred to choose a rail profile with a footing, which is clamped onto the gantry with
eccentric clamps. This clamped foot rail construction is not only more expensive, but does not
contribute to the strength and stiffness of the gantry. This solution, however, favourably
influences the fatigue behaviour.
Self-weight crane gantry
Normally, for the weight of one crane gantry girder with rail and associated platform, the
following can be maintained:
- For a hoisting capacity of 100 kN - weight crane gantry, etc.: 3.5 kN/m
- For a hoisting capacity of 500 kN - weight crane gantry, etc.: 5.5 kN/m
