2. Design a simply supported gantry girder to carry electric overhead travelling crane

Given:

Span of gantry girder = 7 m

Span of crane girder = 9 m

Crane capacity = 250 kN

Self-weight of trolley, hook, electric motor etc. = 40 kN

Self-weight of crane girder excluding trolley = 100 kN

Minimum hook approach = 1.0 m

Distance between wheels = 3 m

Self-weight of rails = 0.2 kN/m
