crane rail runway beam splice
crane rail runway beam splice
(OP)
I am detailing a splice for a w 21X62 crane runway beam. Is it possible to use a welded plate splice. The top and bottom flange will be fully welded and a 10" x 18" x 1/4" plate will be continuously fillet welded on each side. I am trying to stay away from using any bolts. Any info would be appreciated.

you may want to get your hands on the cmaa 70 or 74 guide (if my memory serves me), it shows you everything you need to know about bridge cranes.

I think this is the Canadian equivalent.

Its been awhile since I have design cranes but I don't ever remember design welded connections for the rails of anything lifting over 500lbs.
The times I have seen weld connections were on under hung light rail, basically the small stuff for work station or monorails (which I assume doesn't fit your case with that w21@62).
