Prokon Crane Beam software facilitates swift design and optimisation of multi-span crane runway beams, accommodating various configurations including multiple cranes and support types. By calculating force envelopes and considering horizontal effects of moving cranes, it ensures structural integrity, efficiency, and optimal performance in crane gantry girder design.
The software can model and analyse the various loads imposed by overhead cranes, including vertical loads, horizontal forces, and dynamic effects. It considers factors such as crane movement, load lifting, and lateral forces.
With the ability to calculate force envelopes and consider dynamic loading from cranes, the software ensures optimal performance of crane gantry girder designs. Engineers can confidently design beams that withstand operational stresses and minimise deflections.
The software supports a wide range of beam configurations, including standard I-sections, plate girders, and box girders. This flexibility allows engineers to tailor designs to specific project requirements and optimise for material usage and cost-effectiveness.
A construction company is tasked with designing a crane runway system for a new manufacturing facility. The project requires the design of multi-span crane gantry girders capable of supporting heavy loads and accommodating the movement of multiple cranes.
Using Prokon Crane Beam software, the engineers input the project specifications, and operational requirements. They utilise the software’s capabilities to swiftly design and optimise the crane runway beams, considering factors such as span lengths, support types, and dynamic loading from the cranes.
