    Moment Connection with SHS Column

    I agree with KootK, the bolts at top flange are not properly placed and there is a 600kN and some tension travelling through. Consider other options: - Change UB stub to 2/PFC's each side of column or replace entire UB with 2/PFC's - Change column to UC and detail a moment connection to flanges...

    Overhead Cranes

    PHB forces act when the crane accelerates / decelerates along the runway with the ladden hoist located elswhere than in the centre of mass. They (the forces) are not due to transvere acceleratio/deceleration of hoist. Y forces are born when the crane travels along the runway in a skewed...

    Overhead Cranes

    Hi, Re overhead travelling cranes Can anyone advise if lateral inertia loads due to longitudinal acceleration of a crane bridge apply concurrently with loads due to oblique travelling/skewing of crane bridge during normal operations? Notes re various codes requirements: AS1418.1 combine...
