    Crane Loading

    This document discusses methods for attaching rails to gantry girders for overhead cranes. It describes using tight clamps for fixed rails with little clearance and loose clamps for floating rails with 0.8mm clearance. It also lists additional impact loads that should be considered in design, including 25% of maximum static wheel load for vertical forces and 10% of crane/load weight for horizontal forces transverse to rails. Horizontal forces along rails should be 5% of crane/load weight. Lateral surge loads are also discussed, with an example calculation of 5% of total weight for an EOT crane.

    However, the Indian code IS 875 recommends 10%W for EOT cranes (see Tabl·e· 12.3). These
    horizontal loads are also calledsurge loads. In the design of the girder: , it is usually assumed that
    the lateral or longitudinal surge is resisted by the compression flange alone. Note that it is
    customary to assume that the entire · horizontal force acts on one gantry girder at the position of the
    wheels. But if the
    wheels have guides on both sides of the flange of the wheel, the force is resisted by
