CRANE INFORMATION <br /> <br />A crane support is a component to the metal building system provided. The types of cranes <br />that may be supported by the metal building include Overhead Top Running, Underhung, and <br />Jib cranes. Typical support may include crane beams, support brackets, and sway bracing. <br />The direct supports including runway beams and support brackets are designed for the <br />controlling fatigue load from the applicable building code load combinations with impact while <br />the primary framing system is designed for the crane loading without impact or fatigue. When <br />multiple crane systems are supported by the building MBMA guidance is used for the <br />investigation of combined loading combinations. <br />Building longitudinal bracing is typically tiered at the crane elevation as a load path to accept <br />crane loads and distribute them to the foundation. Crane runway beams are typically used to <br />transfer crane stop and longitudinal crane loads to the metal building bracing system. When <br />cap channels are used to aid in lateral deflection, they are stitch welded to the runway beam <br />and the two are designed as a composite member. <br /> <br />47 1901 N Fairview St & Bldg A, B, <br />C, F & 1919 N Fairview St Bldg E <br />4/11/2024
