Crane Girder Design Calculations

The document provides details on the design of a crane girder, including: 1. Calculating design loads from wheel loads and self-weight, applying load and impact factors. 2. Determining maximum bending moments and shears from the loads. 3. Selecting a UB section and checking its capacity against the calculated demands for bending, shear, buckling, and deflection. 4. Checking the capacity of the web against shear buckling and bearing stresses. So in summary, the document outlines the load calculations and structural design checks performed for a crane girder supporting wheel loads on a crane bridge.
