Overhead Crane
Overhead Crane
(OP)
Hi
I'm inquiring about how to design the beams for an overhead crane. The beams have to be about 60ft long and are spaced 48 ft apart from one another.
I'd like to know if there are any sites where i can look up the equations, loads to be considered etc, to be able to design my supporting beams.
Any help is greatly appreciated

RE: Overhead Crane
CMAA is now part of Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA), their web site is www.mhia.org
The CMAA Specifications can be ordered from them but I don't think you will find the Specs online.
Good luck!
