CALCULATION NOTE

ALLOWABLE STRESS DESIGN

1. GENERAL DATA

● Customer: LEVERAGE CORPORATION PROVISIONES SA

● Type: Double girder
● Capacity: 5t
● Span: 25 m
● Hoist: MISIA - type XM312NS4H7A/53A (s/n 109363), weight 610 kg + electrical
parts 280 kg
● Carriages: DG38Z (s/n 109364)

 3. LOADS

3.1 VERTICAL LOADS (CMAA 70)

● Dead Load (DL): 5,300 kg (one beam) Dead Load Factor (DLF): 1.2
● Trolley load (TL): 305 kg + 280 kg Trolley Load Factor (TLF): 1.2
● Lifted Load (LL): 5,000 kg (2,500 kg) Hoist Load Factor (HLF): 1.5
● Vertical Inertia Forces (VIF) + Inertia Forces from Drives (IFD) + 5% Vertical Loads

P = 1.05 (1.2 x 5,300 + 1.2 x 585 + 1.5 x 2,500) = 11,350 daN

Ix = 378,165 cm4

Wx = 7,415 cm3
Material: S235JR-EN10025 or similar

sadm = 1,600 daN/cm 2

E = 2,100,000 daN/cm2

We consider the bending moment only because the torque moment (due to the wheel
lateral loads and to the rail, whose axis is not on the beam axis) is neglectable.

 8. DEFLECTION

8.1 The maximum vertical deflection of the girder produced by the weight of the hoist, trolley
and rate load shall not exceed 1/888 of the span.
Vertical inertia forces shall not be considered in determining deflection. (3.5.5.1 CMAA
70).
