ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

For every accomplishment to come and pass a dream has to surface. I being a product of hard
work and sacrifice from many people and other external factors would like to take this time to
thank everyone.

Firstly I would like to give my undying gratitude to Perpetua Piki (mother) for her support
from whence I have commenced my course up to this far.

Without the help of my sisters this Project would have not existed (Special thanks to Trish
and Trudie Piki). Not forgetting my friend Paidamoyo Musiiwa for her crude and timely but
very helpful interventions and suggestions and Catherine Nyikadzino faking to proof read
through the Project and giving me the confidence.

Distinctive appreciation to the Civil and Construction department for giving me this
opportunity to discover the world of civil works make it a practical reality and dream.

To the K.G.6 Engineering Workshop family as a whole I give my undying gratitude for
their patience and for taking the time to bestow their knowledge down to me, especially the
gift of communication, the working and dynamic environment.

Thank you

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

ABSTRACT

A 5-ton crane presently serves the K.G.6 engineering workshop’s roll build-up area. The

existing crane is inadequate to lift the mill caps estimated to weigh 8-10tons.The 90 ton EOT

crane has been performing this lift but with the operation of new mill, the availability of the

90 ton crane will be greatly curtailed. It has been decided therefore to install a new semi-

gantry crane to provide service for the roll build-up pits. Crane will be radio controlled

It is desirable to make use of part of the runway system for the existing 5 ton crane for the

new semi-gantry crane. This runway will need to be extended.

CHAPTER 1

1.0 INTRODUCTION

In the role build-up area for the assembly of wedges, bearings, bearing caps, etc., into the

mill stand. The assembled mill stand is then lifted and carried to its proper place for

installation in the rolling line by the 90-ton EOT crane. The low lifting capacity of the wall

hung crane made it necessary to use one of the 90-tone EOT cranes in the assembly and dis-

assembly of the mill stands for lifting the heavier components such as mill caps and rolls

which may weigh as much as 8 to 10 tons .Prior to installation of the new wide flange facility

, there existed sufficient time in the operating schedule of the 90-ton EOT cranes to permit its

use in the roll build-up process .However ,with the installation of the new facility , available

crane time of the 90-ton EOT crane for this activity would be greatly curtailed , making it

necessary to plan for other ways to effect the roll build-up process . Since the existing wall

hung crane could not be modified economically to handle heavier lifts required, I decided that

a new 10-ton semi-gantry crane would have to be designed and built to serve the role built-

up area. I reached to this conclusion late in the construction and installation schedule of the

new wide flange facility, making it necessary to design, fabricate and install the new semi-

gantry crane in a period of about 6 months.

3.DESIGN CRITERIA , CALCULATIONS AND OUTPUT

3.0 Disciplines effecting the design, fabrication and installation of the new 10- ton semi-

gantry crane

In addition to the restricted time schedule, there were several other conditions which

imposed certain disciplines for the installation of the new crane. To effect an economy in

time and money, it is desirable to use as much of the existing runway of the wall-hung crane

as possible to support the high trucks of the new semi-gantry crane. It is necessary throughout

the construction and installation phase of the entire wide flange beam facility that mill

operations continue uninterrupted and that rolling schedules be unbroken. This is true also for

the installation of the new semi-gantry crane. The operations in the roll build-up area have to

continue uninterrupted while the new crane and runway is being installed.

To effect this condition, I decided that the existing runway would be extended 22.86 metres

and that the new crane would be installed in the reach of extended runway. This additional

runaway would also provide additional floor storage for roll, mill caps, etc., which could be

retrieved by the new crane The runaway supporting the gantry leg and low trucks of the new

crane would of necessity have to be flush with the mill floor for reasons of safety, the

elimination of tripping hazard The new crane have to operate in an area underneath the

runaway system for the 90-ton EOT cranes and so proper clearances for safe operation of all

cranes as they pass each other have to be designed into the project. In order to place the mill

Project by: Tanatsa Piki

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

caps on top of the roll stands the new crane have to be designed to give a minimum lift of

approximately 4.6 metres.

This requirement coupled with the clearances mentioned above and the desirability of using

as much of the existing runaway system of the wall-hung crane as possible, imposed rather

narrow design disciplines.

To minimise operational crew for the crane, it is determined that the crane would be radio –

controlled .This would permit one-man operation. The operator could also station himself at

convenient locations where he could most easily see to operate the crane safely and

efficiently

3.2. CRANE RUNWAY DESIGN CONSTRUCTION

Because of the restricted time scheduled mentioned in Introduction, it is necessary to estimate

wheel loads for the new crane which would then be used in the design of the runway system.

This permits early construction of the crane runway which is also the portion of the work that

of necessity have to be completed first. It also permits the contractor who have nearly

completed concrete operations on other phases of the installation of the universal Mill and its

relation facilities to respond to a change order to his contract for installation of the foundation

ribbon for the low trucks and gantry leg of the crane. Page 15 of Appendix A shows the

estimated loading system used to design the foundation ribbon. As matters turned out, the

estimated loading system provide to be somewhat conservative both as to load intensity and

wheel spacing. The general procedure for design of the foundation ribbon for the gantry leg

and low trucks of the crane is to use the theory of a beam on an elastic foundation as

explained in the text, “Advanced Mechanics of Materials”- second edition, by Seely and

smith. It is desirable to keep the width of the foundation ribbon to a minimum to avoid

breaking out any more of the existing 300 mm thick reinforced concrete mill floor than is

necessary. Resultant soil load have to be kept below 2500 pounds per square foot which

original investigations for the plant site had recommended as a maximum for shallow

footings, Based on the soil investigations for the plant site have recommended as a maximum

for shallow footings. Based on the original soil investigations made for the plant site, a value

of 200 pounds per cubic inch was used as the soil modulus. This value is admittedly

somewhat conservative, but since it results in higher values of moment and stress in the

foundation ribbon, its use was felt to be justified. A trail section 600 mm wide by 600 m deep

is assumed for the foundation ribbon and values of moment of inertia, soil constant “K’’, and

the index of the elastic curve “B” is calculated as shown on page 15 of appendix A. The

Project by: Tanatsa Piki

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

maximum values for soil deflection “Y₀”, moment in the foundation ribbon “M₀”, and shear

in the foundation ribbon “V₀” is calculated from the equations:

TABLE 4.1: L OADING SCENARIOS FOR DESIGN SITUATIONS

Y₀=PB/2K = 0.00000127 P inches

M₀=P/4B=20.5 P KIP INCHES
V₀=-P/2=-O.5P KIPS

The values occur at the point of load in the foundation ribbon and since there are two wheels

for the lower truck, values for each load at the points other than at the point of load is also

computed by methods mentioned in the text and values for deflection and moment plotted to

form a smooth curve as shown on page 17 of Appendix A. Since the effect of the two loads

from wheels of the lower truck are addictive , another curve which is the sum of curves for

the two wheels loads is also plotted .This last curve gives the design value of deflection and

moment which were used to complete the analysis and design of the foundation ribbon. This

soil loading intensity ‘’q’’ is the product of the soil constant ‘K’’ and maximum deflection

‘’Y’’ and was computed to be q=KY (4800) (0,034) = 163 pounds per inch 0f length of the

foundation ribbon. This is equivalent to the soil loading intensity of 978 pounds per square

foot which is considerably below the allowable soil load of 2500 psf. The maximum moment

in the foundation ribbon is found to be 39 kip feet. It is found that two #9 bars both top and

bottom of the ribbon would reinforce the foundation properly. The text by Sealy and smith

disclosed that near the end of long beams on elastic foundation, the maximum moment is

125% of the interior moments and the maximum soil loading intensity is four times that

found elsewhere along the beam. To avoid designing the reinforcement for this higher value

and to eliminate the high soil loading intensity near the ends of the ribbon, it was decided to

support the ends of the ribbon on existing foundation which just happened to be convenient.

Shear stress in the concrete ribbon did not require the use of stirrups, but bars were used at

Project by: Tanatsa Piki

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

4′-:0” centres, principally to support the longitudinal reinforcing steel. By ratio and

proportion, it is also determined that the foundation ribbon designed for a 27 kip wheel load

is also satisfactory for a 33 kip wheel load corresponds to a 15 ton crane. At that stage of

development, there is a possibility that the crane would be rated at 15 ton capacity. The

drawing ST-0181-F1 shown on the page 50 of Appendix B shows the foundation ribbon as

constructed. The six inch channel sections supporting the 105 pound runway rail are

themselves supported by overhead ties to members resting on the existing floor slab. At the

time design work is commenced for the runway for the high side trucks of the semi-gantry

crane, considerable design work and drawings have been done on the crane proper so that the

better information on the wheel load and spacing is available. Also, I have decided to rate the

crane at 10 ton capacity. The loading diagram is shown on page 21 of Appendix A. Minimum

impact and side thrust factors permitted by corporation standard are used in the high side

runway design because the crane is to be radio-controlled. An investigation of the existing

runway was undertaken to determine if it could be modified acceptably. Parts of the existing

runway which accepted the upper horizontal reaction of the wall-hung crane are to be added

to the reminder. (See page 51 in Appendix B). A trial section composed of the existing girder

reinforced with a new 9” x1/2” plate welded to the lower flange is subjected to the loading

from the new crane stresses arrived at through flexure formulas. Since the runway consisted

of simple span girders of 7.62 metres In length, the maximum moments, both vertical and

horizontal are the result of one wheel load at span centre .The side thrust used to arrive at the

horizontal moment is arrived at by taking 15% of the lifted load and dividing it between the

two wheels of the upper truck:

Side thrust per wheel= (0.15) (2) (10)/2=1.5kips

Stresses in the upper flange of the modified section were found to total 9 KSI and the stress in

the lower flange is found to be 11.4 KSI for the 10-ton crane wheel loading. These are both

Project by: Tanatsa Piki

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

low stresses and are considered satisfactory .See page 22 through 24 of Appendix A for these

calculations.

In a similar manner the girder section for the three 7.62 metres spans of the 22.86 metres

runway extension are designed .These girders are made up of rolled sections, however,

instead of welded plates as for the existing girders .The new section of runway are also made

of steel having a yield point of 36,000 psi in contradistinction to the existing girders which

were composed of steel having a yield of 33,000 psi .A trial section composed of a 21 WF 68

and a 12 [20.7 is stressed out and the resulting stresses compared with allowable values are

found to be satisfactory. Page 25 of Appendix A shows these calculations .Also, page 52 of

Appendix B shows drawing ST-0181-2 which is a general arrangements and erection plan for

the runway extension.

As can be seen from the drawings before mentioned, the runway for the upper truck of the

crane is composed of 7.62 metre girders supported at the building columns with brackets

cantilevering from the column and since the building column are spaced at 15.24 metres, it

requires a support for the 7.62 metre girders which is hung from the runway girder for the 90

ton EOT cranes

This support for the extended portion of the runway is patterned after its counterpart for the

existing portion of the runway .The loads and reactions are very nearly the same .Pages 26

and 27 of Appendix A describe the field bolts required for the crane runway girder and the

hanger also .

3.3. DESIGN FABRICATION AND ERECTION OF 10-TON SEMI-GANTRY

CRANE

The restricted time schedule made a minimum of design and machining of parts greatly

desirable ,if not necessary .A great deal of design and of fabrication time will be saved by a

decision to use an existing trolley on hand .The trolley had served as the auxiliary trolley on a

former ladle crane once serving number one pig machine at the Morris Plant .The crane , a

75 ton EOT crane ,was removed to Morris Depot several years ago and modified to serve in

the ladle deskilling building .The modification consisted of removal of the 15 ton auxiliary

trolley and bridge girders as well as the existing 75 ton trolley .These were replaced with a

new trolley which combined a 75 ton and a 50 ton hoist on the same frame

The surplus 15 to auxiliary trolley have a very slow lifting speed of 23.8 feet per minute .The

slow lifting speed is not considered detrimental for this application however, because the

semi-gantry is not a production crane .In fact, the slow speed of the hoist and the trolley

travel speed of 90 feet per minute were deemed to be ideal for the use intended.

The trolley had lain out in the weather for a year or so and so require extensive clean-up and

painting .In addition all electrical wiring mast be removed and new wiring installed .Existing

bearings and bearing caps must be re-conditioned .The trolley wheels must be removed and

the tread widened by turning of some material .The tread widening is necessary because a

larger rail will be used for the trolley runway on top of the new crane bridge girders .New

wire rope will replace the old rope no longer of correct length and badly rusted from

exposure to weather

Another decision that I made to meet demanding time schedule is to drive the bridge motion

of the crane with two direct current motors connected in series and mounted such that one

Project by: Tanatsa Piki

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

motor would drive one wheel on the low truck and the other motor would one wheel on the

upper truck.

This arrangement obviates the need for mechanical connection of the driven wheels through

a drive shaft with its attendant gearing .The series electrical connection applied the same

voltage to each mill motor (1/2 of the line voltage ) and thus the speeds were exactly the same

;a necessary condition to insure that the crane travels evenly down its runway without

“racking” and the attended excess wear of bridge wheel flanges .The driven wheels of the

bridge motion must be connected to the motors through a gear reducer which is a standard

off-the-shelf item available within an eight week period .Had it been necessary to design

these gear boxes and then machine all gears and cast the gear box covers ,the prolonged time

element would have been unacceptable

The speed of the bridge motion will be set at 200 feet per minute at rated R.P.M of the drive

motors .I chose this speed because it is about the equivalent of a comfortable walking speed

of the crane operator .This speed also dictate the gear ratio and the gear reducers which is

chosen at 17.09 to one .The calculation necessary to arrive at this gear ratio and the

horsepower requirement for the drive motors can be seen on page 42 through 45 Appendix

A .Characteristic curves for 115 volt operation of the mill motors will be requested from the

motor manufacturer.

I made the design of the bridge girders of the crane a 15 ton lift because the trolley had a

rated capacity of 15 ton .However, I determined at this time to rate the crane at 10 ton

capacity .The existing drawings for the trolley gave no indication of the dead weight and so I

estimated the weight was at 20,000 pounds .This weight also proved to be conservative when

the trolley was later weighed at 14.800 pounds.

Project by: Tanatsa Piki

 10-TON SEMI GANTRY CRANE AND RUNWAY DESIGN

For purposes of the bridge girder design the vertical impact factor was taken at 30% of the

lifted load .The horizontal force factor was computed to be 10% of the dead weight of the

bridge girder .These factors were chosen in agreement with the design standard mentioned

earlier

The method of design of the bridge girders was to establish a trial section and then determine

stresses due to two loading combinations and compare the stresses with allowable stresses.

Bridge girder bending stresses were computed for two load combinations.

Load combination number one consisted of maximum vertical loads applied simultaneously

with maximum horizontal loads .The resultant stresses were combined to give a maximum

stress which was compared with an allowable stress. Load combination number two consisted

of the maximum stress due to vertical loads less the minimum stress due to dead load .This

“stress range “ was compared with an allowable stress range .The stress range gives an index

to susceptibility to fatigue failure. See page 31 through 37 in Appendix A for calculations

relating to bridge girder design.

Design of the end trucks will be handled in a manner similar to the procedure for design of

the bridge girders .See page 38 through 40 in Appendix A

The gantry leg columns were designed by picking a trial section and investigating it for

combined bending and axial load stresses resulting from vertical load and side thrust

respectively

Wheel bearings for the bridge trucks are designed for minimum B10 life of 20,000 hours in

the manner shown on pages 46 through 47 of Appendix A.

Fabrication and erection of the crane will be handled by K.G.6 engineering workshop

4.0. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS

For a few of the drawings that I have made for K.G.6 Roll Build up Workshop for this crane,

see Appendix B

I can safely conclude that the crane design was satisfactory and that the operating

characteristics of the crane will justified the decision to install such a crane over the roll

build-up pits of the K.G.6 engineering workshop.

4.1 RECOMMENDATIONS

4.1.1 Recommendations to Mutare Polytechnic College

There should be more computer applications or programs taught besides computer

programming and AUTOCARD. So as to assist students adapt to the many modern
packages now been used e.g. PROKON, Slide and PHASE 2, FEM modelling
software’s, civil designer, etc.
Introduction of more trips to see large scale civil engineering projects such as the
South bank extension project should be initiated.
Students should carry out more tests in the laboratory and not just see the machinery
in text book so as to get the feel of the actual procedure and onsite difficulties.

4.1.2 Recommendations to K.G.6 Engineering Workshop

 Aim to bridge the language barrier between the employer and the foreign contractors
so students can get a much better experience to the already good learning
environment.
 Get more trainee students as there is much to learn during these large projects.

4.1.3 Recommendations to Student

Always remember we ambassador of our Respective collages and that those after us
may suffer due to our selfish actions.
Take orders and assimilate knowledge from everyone as people of different
qualifications all have something to offer.
Gaining experience should be the leading motive not financial gains.
