10.6 Forms Gantry Girders

The document discusses design requirements for gantry girders supporting cranes. It states that gantry girders supporting bumpers must be checked for bumper impact loads. When checking permissible stresses under simultaneous vertical and horizontal surge loads, stresses may be increased by 10% per the IS code. The IS code also limits the maximum vertical deflection of gantry girders based on the type of crane and girder span.

Gantry Girders

e) Gantry girders supporting bumper shall be checked for bumper impact loads.

2) As per IS: 800-1984 (clause 3.9.3) the permissible stresses are to be increased
by 10% which considering the simultaneous effects of vertical and horizontal
surge loads for the combination given above.

3) As per IS: 800-1984 (clause 3.13.1) for Gantry Girders the limiting vertical
deflection under dead and imposed loads shall not exceed the following values:
a) For MOT cranes ............
L
b) For EOT cranes upto 500 kN ............. --
750
L
c) For EOT cranes over 500 kN .............. -1000
-

L
-
d) For charging car etc ........ 600
where, L = span of crane runaway girder (gantry girder)
