This report demonstrates the application of Eurocode 1 - Part 3: “Actions induced by cranes and machinery” and the application of Eurocode 3 - Part 6: “Crane supporting structures” for a top mounted crane.

The geometric properties which are assumed in the design example are summarized in section 1.2 and the mechanical details of the crane are defined in section 1.3. Further assumptions for the crane are given where they are necessary.
The following geometric properties are assumed in the design example for the crane: Span length of the crane bridge: 15,00 m Wheel spacing a: 2,50 m Min. spacing between crab and supports e min: 0,00 m
The following mechanical properties are defined for the crane:
Self-weight of the crane Q c1 : 60,0 kN Self-weight of the crab Q c2 : 10,0 kN Hoistload Qh,nom : 100,0 kN
The dynamic effects of a crane structure are taken into account by magnification factors which are defined in Eurocode 1 - Part 3.
The magnification factor ϕ 1 takes into account vibrational excitation of the crane structure due to lifting the hoist load off the ground and is to be applied to the selfweight of the crane.
ϕ 1 = 1,1 (upper value of the vibrational pulses)
(EC 1- P 3: Table 2.4)
Design example for Eurocode 3 – Part 6: Cranes supporting structures
-7-
The magnification factor ϕ 2 is only to be applied to the hoistload and takes into account the dynamical effects when the hoistload is transferred from the ground to the crane. The magnification factor depends on the hoisting class of the crane. It is assumed that the crane is classified as HC 3. Recommendations about the classification of cranes are given in Annex B of Eurocode 1 - Part 3. Assumption: Hoisting class of the crane: HC 3 vh = 6 m/min 6 ϕ 2 = ϕ 2,min + β 2 v h = 1,15 + 0,51 ⋅ 60
= 1,20
(EC 1- P 3: Table 2.4)
The parameters ϕ 2,min and β 2 were obtained from table 2.5 of EC 1- Part 3.
The magnification factor ϕ 3 considers the dynamical effects when a payload is sudden released. These dynamic effects occur at cranes which use magnets as hoist tools. In the design example it is assumed that no part of the payload is able to sudden release. Assumption: No sudden release or dropped part of the load.
ϕ 3 = 1,00
(EC 1- P 3: Table 2.4)
This magnification factor is to be applied to the self-weight of the crane and to the payload, if the rail track observes not the tolerances specified in ENV 1993 - 6. Assumption: The tolerances for rail tracks are observed as specified in ENV 1993 - 6.
ϕ 4 = 1,00
(EC 1- P 3: Table 2.4)
The magnification factor ϕ 5 takes into account the dynamic effects caused by drive forces and depends on the characteristic of the drive forces. Assumption: The drive force change smoothly.
ϕ 5 = 1,50
(EC 1- P 3: Table 2.6)

In this section the minimum and the maximum vertical wheel loads of the crane are calculated according to table 3.1 which was obtained from Eurocode 1 - Part 3 (Table 2.2). Table 3.1 defines the groups of loads which are to be considered as one characteristic crane load, when additional actions apply at the structure (for example: self-weight, wind action, snow). With the definition of the groups of loads the relevant combinations of the magnification factors are given. Groups of loads Symbol

It is assumed that the horizontal loads are resisted by the top flange. The rail is rigid fixed with clamps on the top flange. Therefore the net section properties of the crane runway girder are considered. The cross-section properties of the rail are not taken into account though the rail is rigid fixed.

According to 9.1.4 of Eurocode 3 - Part 6 no fatigue assessment is necessary, if the number of load cycles with more than 50 % of the full payload is smaller than 10000 cycles. In the design example this condition is not fulfilled, so that a f atigue check is necessary. The fatigue assessment is carried out for the crane runway girder on the basis of nominal stress ranges.
