Rail Installation Tolerances

The document defines manufacturing tolerances for crane runways in three tolerance classes. Tolerance A specifies the allowable difference between the maximum and minimum track gauge dimension, Tolerance B specifies the allowable lateral straightness of rail heads from the crane runway length, and Tolerance C specifies the allowable straightness of rail centers from the crane rail length. Tolerance class 2 tolerances are recommended.
