1 OBJECT AND SCOPE

1.1 Object

The object of this project is the structural design of a gantry crane of great light

and medium load. To reach it, the following steps will be followed:

Acquisition of the necessary information for the approach of the

problem.

Simplified study and modeling of the different existing structural

alternatives for the construction of the crane with the help of a

computer program for structural analysis.

Choice of the most appropriate option.

Final design of the crane structure considering the selected alternative

1.2 Scope

This study will be limited to the structural calculation of the gantry crane based

on the design requirements. However, they are outside the scope of this

project:

The calculation of the connections between the different structural

elements.

Fatigue calculation of elements subject to cyclic loads.

The modal analysis of the structure.

Likewise, the design of electromechanical elements such as reducing groups,

motors or systems for the regulation and control of the crane will not be

considered.

2 INTRODUCTION

2.1 Project location

The crane object of this project is a project for a company dedicated to the production

of prefabricated elements, the crane will be located in a company located in Oporto,

where exclusive concrete blocks of between 20 and 40 tons will be manufactured,

The location of the premises for the construction of the crane has measures of 125m

by 250m, the crane will be out in the open, and will serve to perform tasks of

maintenance of finished parts.

2.2 Gantry crane

The gantry crane is a special type of crane that raises the load by means of a

hoist installed on a beam, which in turn is supported by two or more legs.

These legs are usually fixed to the ground by a mechanism that allows the

translation of the entire structure. Generally the crane moves on rails along the

surface to be covered. The operation of a gantry crane is similar to that of a

bridge crane with the difference that in the latter the beam supports directly on

elevated rails and anchored to the supporting structure of the building where it

is located. Both configurations have a similar forklift system that can run the

beam completely. A volumetric space can be covered with a gantry crane, since

the load can be moved in all three dimensions. The main movements that a

gantry crane is capable of performing are (Figure 2-3):

1. Vertical movement of lifting and lowering of the load.

2. Horizontal movement of the carriage / hoist traveling along the beam.

3. Horizontal movement of translation of the entire structure along the

runway of the gantry

Figure 2-3. Main movements of a gantry crane

16

Due to its versatility, gantry cranes are widely used in various industrial sectors

for cargo handling. The range they can cover ranges from a few hundred kg to

thousands of tons. Some examples of its application are shown below.

2.2.1 Shipyards and heavy

industries

In these industries the loads to move are high

(sections of ships, train bogies or prefabricated

concrete elements), oscillating between 20 and

200 t and reaching extreme values of up to

20,000 t

2.2.2 Container handling

Another common application of gantry cranes is the movement of containers in

port areas. The maximum loads are of the order of 30 t.

2.2.3 Automotive gantries

In this case the crane has the particularity of being

able to move independently in any direction through

pneumatic wheels. They are widely used in the

transfer of containers and boats in port areas.

2.2.4 Workshops

In workshops of repair or mechanical manufacture small gantry cranes are used

to manipulate machines or parts thereof. Its capacity can vary between 100 and

3000 kg. They are usually provided with wheels so they can be moved in any

direction.

2.3 Components

This section briefly describes the main components that make up a gantry

crane.

Figure 2-6. Main components of a gantry crane [10]

2.3.1 Beam

Together with the supports, it forms the basic structural system of the crane. Its

mission is to serve as a platform for the movement of the carriage-hoist unit as

well as to support the efforts it receives from it. In addition, it can house the

control cabin, various electromechanical systems or access gateways for

maintenance.

2.3.2 Supports

They are responsible for receiving the load transmitted by the beam and

channel it to the ground. In addition, like the beam, they can house the control

room, electromechanical systems and access stairs.

2.3.3 Car

Page 18: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

18

The car serves as support for the hoist. It is provided with an electromechanical

group that allows it to move along the beam.

2.3.4 Hoist

The hoist is the mechanism that allows the vertical displacement of the load

taking advantage of the mechanical advantage produced by the action of at

least two pulleys. The branches can be chains, when the loads are light, or steel

cables.

2.3.5 Translation mechanism

The most common way of translating gantry cranes is through rails or

pneumatic wheels. Therefore, the supports support bogies or frames equipped

with wheels that are moved by electromechanical groups.

2.4 Classification of gantry cranes

To conclude the introduction, and in order to characterize more deeply gantry

cranes, these can be classified according to different aspects; some of them are

commented below

2.4.1 According to the constitution of the pórtico

Figure 2-7. Flush-mounted configuration [11]

The union of the beam with each of the two supports is done differently (Figure

2-7). In a support an articulated joint is executed, without transmission of

moments between both elements. In the remaining support an embedment

materializes, in such a way that the transmission of moments is guaranteed.

Page 19: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

19

With this provision, the structure is a mechanism if we look at its internal

constitution. However, globally the structure is isostatic due to the fact that in

the union of the supports with the rails, fixed supports are obtained.

The main advantage of this configuration is that the necessary section for the

articulated support is smaller, since it only works under axial effort.

2.4.1.2 Gantry with both supports embedded to the beam

In this case the union of both supports with the beam is executed as an

embedment, obtaining a hyperstatic constitution structure (see Figure 2-5). The

main advantage of this configuration is that the arrow on the beam is smaller

compared to the articulated-embedded system.

2.4.2 According to the translationality of the pórtico

2.4.2.1 Fixed gantry

In this case the gantry does not move from its position, so it can only move

loads along its light (see Figure 2-4).

2.4.2.2 Mobile gantry

With this arrangement the gantry crane can move to cover more work surface.

The displacement can be unidirectional along rails or in any direction if it is an

automotive gantry crane on pneumatic wheels (Figure 2-5).

2.4.3 According to the structural system of the gantry

2.4.3.1 Porch based on lattice elements

Both the beam and the supports are made up of lattice profiles, either flat or

spatial. The main advantage of this solution is that it is more economical when

trying to save large lights. In addition, the surface exposed to the wind is

noticeably smaller compared to the porticos formed by box beams.

Page 20: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

20

However, its limitation is given by its maximum load capacity, which is less than

what can be achieved with box beams.

Figure 2-8. Lattice gantry crane [13]

2.4.3.2 Porch based on full soul profiles

The cranes based on hot-rolled profiles of full core type IPE, IPN or HE are used

when the lights to be saved are reduced and the loads to be handled are light.

Its main advantage lies in its simplicity and economy of construction.

2.4.3.3 Portico based on armed profiles type beam cajón

With this configuration, the beam is constituted by an armed profile based on

welded plates (see Figure 2-6). You can get practically any type of section that is

needed. Generally, the sections have a hollow rectangular shape (with or

without external flanges), well suited to withstand the bending and shear

stresses prevailing in the beam.

This morphology is the most used in the construction of gantry cranes from a

certain size. With it you can reach load capacities over 1000 tons and lights over

100 m.

2.4.4 According to beam morphology

2.4.4.1 Monoviga or monorail pórtico

It is the basic configuration of a gantry crane and in it the car is supported by a

single beam. It is a suitable solution to support low loads. The use of a biretal

configuration is usually preferable after 20 t.

21

2.4.4.2 Double or double beam gantry

When the loads to be moved are high and / or the light to be saved is important, a

double-row configuration is used. With it the load is distributed between two beams,

so that the necessary profiles can be of smaller section.

software. The program basically performs two tasks:

Calculate the internal efforts and the displacements of the structure (analysis).

For this, it is necessary to define in advance the geometry of the structure and

assign a section to each element, as well as external loads and boundary

conditions.

Carry out the necessary checks (dimensioning) according to the regulations that

apply, in this case the Eurocode 3.

Each element is assigned the list of sections that can be used and the program is

responsible for selecting the most appropriate one based on iterations. If a section

does not comply, it is passed to a higher section and recalculated. And conversely, if a

section is very oversized, select a lower one and repeat the process.

4 DESIGN REQUIREMENTS

4.1 Geometry of the crane

4.1.1 Span

The span of the gantry L is the horizontal distance between axes of the supports. It has

been established in 50 meters.

4.1.2 Lifting height

The height of elevation H is the vertical distance between the plane of support of the

device and the point of highest elevation of the hook.

4.1.3 Morphology

Due to the demands in terms of light and load, the crane will have a double

configuration, that is, it will be provided with two main beams on which the car will

move.

4.2 Loads

4.2.1 Payload

The payload considered Q is 45 tons. This includes both the weight of the objects to be

lifted and the rigging, hooks and other accessories necessary for its attachment.

4.2.2 Car-hoist set

The weight of the assembly formed by the trolley, the hoist and its actuating elements

(PC) has been set at 5 tons.

4.2.3 Service charge

The service load SL is the sum of the payload and the weight of the carropolipasto.

Therefore, SL = 50 tons.

4.3 Maneuver speeds

4.3.1 Load lifting

After consulting various commercial catalogs of hoist manufacturers such as GHSA or

ABUS (ref. [9] and [10], respectively), it has been observed that the lifting speed for

nominal loads around 50 t is in the range of [ 4-6] m / min. The speed established for

this study will be VL = 5 m / min.

4.3.2 Translation of the gantry

The speed of translation of the car along the main beams will be 0.4 m / s.

4.4 Period of service

The lifespan of the crane has been established in 25 years. It is considered that it will

work an average of 250 days a year and an average of 8 hours a day, performing 5

cycles of maneuver per hour.

4.5 Technical-economic aspects

The alternative considered optimal will be the one that involves the use of a smaller

amount of material, in this case steel, in its construction. The steel used will be S 355

5 TECHNOLOGICAL ASPECTS

5.1 Steel

According to the UNE 10020 standard, steel is a material that contains, by weight,

more iron than any other simple element, with a carbon content generally lower than

2%. Steel also contains other minerals in smaller proportions, such as phosphorus (P),

sulfur (S) and nitrogen (N). The alloyed steels also contain other elements such as

manganese (Mn), silicon (Si), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni) and molybdenum (Mo). The

carbon content has a fundamental effect on the properties of steel. As the carbon

content increases, the hardness and strength of the steel increases, but also increases

its brittleness and decreases ductility. At lower carbon content, steel presents better

solderability. Steel is, in general, a ductile, malleable, forgeable and weldable material.

Figure 5-1 shows the phase diagram of the steel.

Figure 5-1. Diagram Fe-C [19]

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

28

The steels can be classified according to the carbon content:

Non-alloy steel, whose carbon content is less than 0.2%.

Low alloy steel, which contains carbon in amount greater than 0.2% and a total

amount of other elements not greater than 5%.

High alloy steel, which contains a total amount of other elements greater than

5%. In this group are stainless steels, which contain a minimum of 10.5%

chromium and a maximum of 1.2% carbon.

Steels intended for structures generally contain about 0.25% C and up to 1.6% Mn.

5.1.1.1 Designation of steels

The UNE-EN 10027-1 standard establishes the rules for the symbolic designation of

steels by means of numerical symbols and letters that express certain basic

characteristics, for example, mechanical, chemical, physical, application, etc.

Thus steels for metal construction are designated with an S (Steel, steel in English)

followed by a number that indicates the specified minimum value of the elastic limit in

MPa, for the smallest thickness interval. Below is an example:

S 355 xxx

Where:

- S is the key letter of the steel

- 355 is the guaranteed minimum value of the elastic limit in MPa

- XXX are additional symbols (see attached table)

Additional symbols are divided into group 1 and group 2. If the symbols in group 1 are

insufficient to fully describe the steel, additional symbols from group 2 can be added.

Group 2 symbols should only be used in conjunction with those in group 1 and stand

behind them.

The use of the different grades of steel is as follows:

Grade JR: application in ordinary construction.

Grade J0: application under construction with high welding requirements.

Grade J2: application under construction with special requirements for

strength, resilience and weldability.

Figure 5-2. Additional symbols for construction steel [18]

Construction steels are classified according to the manufacturing process and are

regulated in Euronorms:

Hot rolled steel products, defined in the UNEEN 10025 standard.

Hollow construction products, hot finished (UNE-EN 10210). and cold formed

(UNE-EN 10219).

Open profiles for cold rolled and profiled construction (UNE-EN 10162).

Flat steel products continuously coated with organic materials (pre-coated),

UNE-EN 10169 and UNE-EN 10326.

The following characteristics are common to all steels:

Elasticity Module: E = 210,000 N / mm2

Transverse Elasticity Module: G = 81,000 N / mm2

Poisson's Coefficient: ν = 0.3

Thermal expansion coefficient: α = 1.2x10-5 (ºC) -1

Density: ρ = 7850 kg / m3

5.2 Unions

5.2.1 Welded connections

Welding is the most economical joining method when the assembly conditions are

favorable. Due to this, when a workshop structure is manufactured, its joints are

usually executed by welding.

5.2.1.1 Types of welds

The types of welds most used in the manufacture of metal structures are:

Butt welding. It is done in the cross section of the sheets that are in contact. It

may require a preparation of previous edges, depending on the thickness of the

elements to be joined.

Figure 5-3. Butt weld

Welding at an angle. It is applied to the profile of the surface of the sheets, and

generally does not need edge preparation. Depending on the relative position

of the pieces to be welded, there are three types: overlap joint, T joint and

corner joint.

Figure 5-4. Angled welded joints

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

31

5.2.2 Bolted connections

When the assembly of the structure is carried out on site, bolted connections are the

most used assembly method. This is due to the fact that on site the welds present

several disadvantages, such as the difficulty to ensure a controlled atmosphere and to

carry out tests that guarantee the quality of the welds executed. Bolted connections

can basically be classified into two groups:

With non-prestressed bolts. This type of screws are used in structures

subjected to static charges. In this type of joints, the screws work by cutting.

With prestressed screws. This class of screws is used in structures subjected to

dynamic loads. Here, the screws are subject to axial tensile stress, subjecting

the sheets together to compression forces that cause friction resistance.

6 CLASSIFICATION OF THE CRANE

The UNE 58112-1: 1991 [E] standard establishes a general classification for lifting

devices based on the maximum number of maneuver cycles expected during the useful

life of the device and a parameter called load status. It is considered that a maneuver

cycle starts at the moment when a load is ready to be moved and ends when the

apparatus is ready to move the next load.

6.1 Class of use

La siguiente tabla muestra la clase de utilización del aparato en función del número

máximo de ciclos de maniobra.

Table 6-1. Class of use

Considering the starting data, the maximum number of maneuver cycles of the device

will be 250,000 cycles, which corresponds to a class of use U4 (Regular use in light

duty).

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

33

6.2 State of charge

The state of charge appears in Table 6-2 and can be defined as the number of times a

load of an order of magnitude determined corresponding to the capacity of the device

is raised. Associated with the state of charge appears the coefficient of the charge

spectrum Kp.

Table 6-2. State of charge

It is considered that the apparatus is capable of belonging to the state of charge Q3.

6.3 Device classification group

Una vez conocida la clase de utilización y el estado de carga, se puede especificar el

grupo al que pertenece el aparato según la siguiente tabla.

Table 6-3. Device classification group

Taking into account the parameters obtained previously it can be observed that the

crane object of the study is included in group A5.

7 BASIS OF CALCULATION

For the sizing of the structure, the checks related to the method of limit states exposed

in Eurocode 3 will be carried out. The limit states can be defined as situations that, if

exceeded, assume that the structure does not fulfill any of the functions for which it

has been projected. The limit states are divided into two.

7.1 Service Limit States

The Service Limit States (hereinafter, ELS) are the situations for which the

functionality, durability, comfort or appearance of the structure requirements are not

met. In this case, the check is carried out provided that the arrow of the beam does

not exceed a maximum value established Fadm. Overcoming this arrow would not put

the structure at risk of collapse, but it could negatively affect the operation of the

mobile elements of the crane.

7.2 Last Limit States

The ultimate limit states (hereinafter, ELU) are those that produce the failure of the

structure, by collapse or total or partial ruin. The resistance is verified both at the

section level and at the whole element. The standard EN 1993-1-1: 2005 [A]

establishes, in section 6.1, the following partial reduction coefficients that apply to the

characteristic values of material strength:

Resistance of the cross sections: γM0 = 1.00

Resistance of structural elements to instability: γM1 = 1.00

Resistance to breakage of traction cross sections: γM2 = 1.25

8 ACTIONS ON THE STRUCTURE

The UNE 58132-2: 2005 standard specifies the actions that must be considered in the

calculation of the structures of the lifting devices in general. These actions can be

grouped into four groups:

• Main requests, in the most unfavorable state of charge.

• Requests due to vertical movements.

• Requests due to horizontal movements.

• Requests due to climate changes.

8.1 Main requests

The main requests include:

Own weight of each element of the SG structure. It includes the weight of all

the elements that form the structure of the portico.

Service load SL. Constituted by the weight of the load to be added together

with the weight of the carriage-hoist unit. All these mobile charges will be

assumed in the most unfavorable position.

8.2 Requests due to vertical movements

These actions come from the more or less abrupt lifting of the service load, from the

accelerations or decelerations in the lifting movement and from the vertical crashes

due to rolling on the rails. They are applied by increasing the service load with a

dynamic coefficient Ψ that is calculated using the following expression:

Ψ = 1 + ξ · 𝑉 L

Being:

VL the speed of elevation in m / s.

ξ an experimental coefficient obtained from numerous measurements made in

various devices.

For gantry cranes take ξ = 0.6.

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

36

The above expression is applicable for lifting speeds up to 1 m / s. For higher speeds,

the dynamic coefficient remains constant. In addition, it may not be less than 1.15. The

following figure shows the values of Ψ according to VL

Figure 8-1. Values Ψ

8.3 Solicitations due to horizontal movements

The demands due to horizontal movements that must be considered are:

Oblique movement of the SHo crane.

Inertia force of the load due to the translation of the SHp gantry.

Load inertia force due to the movement of the SHc carriage.

8.3.1 Oblique movement

The device is considered moving at a constant speed and devoid of antioblicuity drive.

The pairs of wheels can be combined in various ways, as indicated in Table 8-1:

Page 37: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

37

Table 8-1. Combinations of pairs of wheels

The positions of the wheel pairs with respect to the position of the guiding means can

be expressed by the distance di (Figure 8-2):

Table 8-1. Combinations of pairs of wheels

If flanged wheels are used instead of an external guidance device, d1 = 0.

It is assumed that the lifting apparatus is traveling at a constant speed inclined at an

angle α as shown in Figure 8-3:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

38

Figure 8-3. Forces on the device during the oblique movement

The guiding force Fy is balanced with the tangential forces of the wheels. The angle α

must be ≤ 0.015 rad and depends on the play between the guide elements and the rail

and the tolerances. The distance h between the guiding means and the instantaneous

slip pole can be calculated by the following expressions:

For F / F systems

For F / M systems

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

39

where

p is the number of pairs of wheels coupled;

μ is the distance fraction between the instantaneous slip pole and lane 1;

μ 'is the fraction of distance between the instantaneous pole of slip and lane 2;

l is the way of the device;

di is the distance between the pair of wheels i and the guiding means.

For its part, the guiding effort Fy is obtained as:

𝐹𝑦 = ν · 𝑓 · 𝑚 · 𝑔

Where

For F / F systems:

For F / M systems:

m * g = gravity force of the loaded device;

n = number of wheels of the device on each side of the raceway.

Finally, the tangential forces Fx and Fy are calculated as follows:

The values of the parameters ξ and ν appear in Table 8-2:

8.3.2 Load inertial force

The force of inertia is a fictitious horizontal force that is applied at the point of

suspension of the load and that produces the same effect on the movement

considered as the accelerator or decelerator torque applied by the motor or brake.

The maximum inertial force of the load produced by horizontal accelerations (or

decelerations) of the load can be calculated as:

where

where

m1 is the mass of the load;

jm is the average acceleration (or deceleration) of the load suspension point.

8.3.2.1 Translation of the gantry

To calculate the inertial force due to the translation of the complete crane, the

following must be taken:

Ψℎ = 2

8.3.2.2 Translation of the carriage

For its part, in the calculation of the inertial force due to the carriage of the car, the

following will be taken:

being

where

m1 is the mass of the load;

m is the mass of the car.

8.3.3 Impact effects

There can be two ST crash situations:

Shock against the structure. For travel speeds up to 0.4 m / s as is the case with

this crane, the effect of the collision is not considered.

Shock on the suspended load. It is not taken into consideration except if the

load is rigidly guided.

The impact effects will not be taken into account since the necessary factors for

consideration are not given.

8.4 Requests due to climatic effects

They include wind action, snow overloads and temperature changes.

8.4.1 Wind action

8.4.1.1 Wind with the appliance in service

The actions on the structure due to the wind being the appliance in service (SW) are

described in the UNE 58113: 1985 [G] standard. The following formula is proposed:

𝐹 = 𝐴 · 𝑝 · 𝐶 f

where

F is the force due to wind in kN;

A is the net area of the element considered in m2;

p is the wind pressure in kN / m2;

Cf is the coefficient of shape of the element considered. Table 8-3 shows the

wind speed and pressure depending on the type of crane:

Table 8-3 shows the wind speed and pressure depending on the type of crane:

By means of Table 8-4 and Figure 8-4 the shape coefficient can be determined:

Figure 8-4. Aerodynamic coefficient

When the wind blows at an angle to the longitudinal axis of an element, the action of

the wind is obtained by the following expression:

where θ <90o.

It may be the case that some elements are sheltered by others. In this case, the shape

coefficient is multiplied by a screen effect factor η which can be consulted in Table 8-5

and which, in turn, depends on the net surface and separation coefficients (Figures 8-5

and 8-6, respectively).

On the other hand, the action of the wind on the mobile load can be obtained by

means of the following expressions:

For devices type a)

For devices type b)

𝑓 = 0.03 · 𝑚 · 𝑔

For devices type c)

𝑓 = 0.06 · 𝑚 · 𝑔

where

f is the force of the wind in kN;

m is the mass of the moving load in t;

g is the acceleration of gravity in m / s2.

8.4.1.2 Wind with the appliance out of service

The action of the wind when the device is out of service SWmax is included in standard

UNE 58132-2: 2005 [F]. The speed and pressure of the wind on the structure as a

function of height can be seen in the following table:

Table 8-6. Wind speed and pressure out of service

Being on the side of safety, you can adopt a constant pressure value for the entire height of

the device and equal to that obtained at its upper end.

8.4.2 Snow overload

The action of snow is not taken into account in the calculation of lifting devices.

8.4.3 Temperature variations

The requests due to temperature variations are not taken into account except in

specific cases. For example, when the elements can not expand freely. In these cases a

range of extreme temperatures is taken (from -20oC to + 45oC).

9 COMBINATIONS OF ACTIONS

9.1 Last Limit States

The UNE 58132-2: 2005 standard [F] stipulates that three different combinations of

actions must be considered in the calculation of the structures:

Case I. Normal service without wind.

Case II. Normal service with limit wind.

Case III. Exceptional requests

In addition, it is contemplated the incorporation of a coefficient of mayoration γc that

depends on the group to which the device belongs and that appears in the following

table

Table 9-1. Coefficient of γc

9.1.1 Case I

The static actions due to the SG own weight, those due to the SL service load,

increased by the dynamic coefficient Ψ and the two most unfavorable SH horizontal

effects, excluding the shock effects ST are considered. All of them multiplied by the

coefficient γc described above:

γ𝑐 · (𝑆𝐺 + Ψ · 𝑆𝐿 + 𝑆𝐻)

9.1.2 Case II

Case I is added to the action of the SW service limit wind and, if necessary, the action

due to the temperature variation:

γ𝑐 · (𝑆𝐺 + Ψ · 𝑆𝐿 + 𝑆𝐻) + 𝑆𝑊

9.1.3 Case III

In this hypothesis, the most unfavorable combination of actions will be considered

among those listed below:

Page 47: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

47

Off-duty equipment with maximum wind:

𝑆𝐺 + 𝑆𝑊𝑚𝑎𝑥

Since the crane will have an anti-tilt device that will prevent the loss of balance, this

combination will not be taken into account.

Apparatus in service under the effect of a shock:

𝑆𝐺 + 𝑆𝐿 + 𝑆𝑇

In this case shock effects are not considered, so this combination will not be

considered.

Apparatus subjected to the tests described in the UNE 58118 standard. These

tests are outside the scope of this project and will not be considered.

9.2 Limit States of Service

The three cases of combinations described above are used in the sizing and testing of

ELUs. For the verification of the deformation ELS (check of the maximum arrow in the

beams) the following combination of actions is used:

𝑆𝐺 + 𝑆𝐿

With the application of this calculation hypothesis it must be verified that the

maximum arrow F does not exceed the admissible arrow Fadm, which for this type of

lifting equipment is:

10 ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVES

Once the starting data and design requirements are known, an analysis of the different

structural alternatives currently available is made in order to choose the most suitable

for the realization of this project.

In order to carry out this comparison, the following considerations have been taken

into account:

A simplified crane model has been created in both geometry and loads.

The various alternatives have been modeled with the help of structural analysis

and design software SAP2000 v.17, from which the values of the acting forces

and the verifications required by the regulations have been obtained.

The option chosen will be the one with the least amount of steel. However,

when choosing a solution, other important factors are also involved, such as

the labor required for manufacturing and assembly, maintenance, appearance,

etc. Since the estimation of all these factors would occupy a whole other

project, they will not be taken into account.

Once this comparison has been made and the most appropriate option

selected, a complete model of the crane will be developed in terms of

geometry and loads that will be the definitive solution to the problem.

10.1 Description of the simplified model

10.1.1 Geometry

The complete crane will be built as a twin portico, that is, with two main beams.

However, the simplified model consists of a single continuous beam of light L = 50 m

supported isostatically at its ends (mobile support / fixed support), requested with half

the service load SL. The morphology of the beam will depend on the alternative

studied.

10.1.2 Actions

The actions to consider are two. On the one hand, the inherent weight of the SG

structure, which is a permanent action and can be represented as a burden.

Page 49: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

uniformly distributed along the length of the beam. In Figure 10-1 a schema appears

along with the expressions for the calculation of stresses and deformations.

Figure 10-1. Beam with uniform distributed load [17]

On the other hand, the service load SL = 25 t, modeled as a point load applied at the

most unfavorable point, that is, at the center of the span (L / 2) (Figure 10-2).

10.1.3 Combination of actions

10.1.3.1 ELU

To carry out the sizing and the checks related to the ELU of the structure, the actions

are carried out with the coefficients γC and Ψ, described in Chapter 8. The calculation

hypothesis is, therefore:

γΥ𝐶 · (𝑆𝐺 + Ψ · 𝑆𝐿)

The value of the load corresponding to the own weight depends on the type of profile

used, so it will be determined for each case. On the other hand, the service load is

known. Its total value has been set at 50 tons for the complete crane. For this model,

half of this figure is considered, 25 tons, since only one isolated beam is being

analyzed.

𝑆𝐿 = 25 𝑡

On the other hand, the coefficients γC and Ψ are calculated below.

The device has been included in group A5. Therefore, the value of γC, according to

Table 9-1, will be:

γΥ𝐶 = 1,11

Regarding the dynamic coefficient Ψ, considering an elevation speed of 5 m / min

(0.083 m / s), we have:

Ψ = 1 + 0.6 · 0.083 = 1.05

However, Ψ can not be less than 1.15. Therefore:

Ψ = 1,15

In this way the calculation hypothesis will be:

1,11 · 𝑆𝐺 + 1,30 · 𝑆𝐿

10.1.3.2 ELS

For verification of the ELS of deformation, both the own weight and the service load

are combined without aging, that is, without the application of coefficients. Therefore,

the load hypothesis in this case will be:

1 · 𝑆𝐺 + 1 · 𝑆𝐿

10.2 Option 1. IPE laminated profile

10.2.1 Description of the model

The first alternative involves the use of a hot rolled profile of parallel wings type IPE.

Given the light of the beam, it is first tested with the larger section of the commercial

catalog of ArcelorMittal [20], IPE 750x196. Its dimensions are:

Figure 10-3. Dimensions of the IPE profile

The properties of the section with respect to its strong axis are:

10.2.2 Sizing / checking

10.2.2.1 ELS Deformation

When it comes to sizing biapoyed beams with considerable light, the greatest

limitation is the arrow limitation. Therefore, sizing starts with the checking of this

parameter.

From the characteristic combination of actions 1 · SG + 1 · SL the value of the

maximum arrow produced in the beam is obtained. Check that the arrow does not

exceed the permissible value:

𝐹 ≤ 𝐹𝑎𝑑𝑚

The maximum permissible arrow is set to L / 1000. Where L = 50 m, Fadm = 0.050 m.

Therefore, the beam does not meet the required requirements and does not meet the

deformation ELS. Thus, no IPE profile is valid for the realization of this structure and

this option is discarded.

10.3 Option 2. HE laminate profile

10.3.1 Description of the model

The next alternative considered is the HE type hot rolled profile. Given the light of the

beam, it is first tested with the largest section of the ArcelorMittal commercial catalog,

HE 1000 M. Its dimensions are:

The properties of the section with respect to its strong axis are

10.3.2 Sizing / checking

10.3.2.1 ELS Deformation

From the characteristic combination of actions 1 · SG + 1 · SL the value of the

maximum arrow produced in the beam is obtained. Check that the arrow does not

exceed the permissible value:

𝐹 ≤ 𝐹𝑎𝑑𝑚

The maximum permissible arrow is set to L / 1000. Where L = 50 m, Fadm = 0.050 m.

Therefore, the beam does not meet the required requirements and does not meet the

deformation ELS. Thus, no HE profile is valid for the realization of this structure and

this option is discarded, although the improvement with respect to the IPE profile is

remarkable.

10.4 Option 3. Armed box beam

10.4.1 Description of the model

The third alternative consists of an armed box beam made of welded rolled steel

plates. Armed box beams are the most used structural solution when building both

gantry cranes and gantry cranes designed to move medium and large loads, with any

range of lights to be saved.

Their popularity is that they really support the simple and composite bending efforts

that are predominant in this type of structure. Also, being closed sections, they are

useful when torrent moments appear and generally have no problems of lateral

instability. You can build almost any type of section that is needed, although the most

common are rectangular or square.

The design process of this beam begins with the sizing of an initial section taking into

account the following relationships:

ℎ ≥ 𝐿 /25

𝑏 ≥ 𝐿 /65

Page 54: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

54

Where L is the distance between supports of the beam. If L = 50 m:

ℎ ≥ 2 𝑚

𝑏 ≥ 0,769 𝑚

The thickness of the plates can be calculated in such a way that shearing problems of

the core are avoided. This can be achieved if the section is of class 1, 2 or 3. For the

section to be at least class 3 (semi-compact or elastic), according to Section 5.5.2,

Table 5.2 of the standard EN 1993-1-1 [TO]:

being

If S 355 steel is used for its construction, with fy = 355 MPa, we have:

ε = 0.814

Based on these relationships, the dimensions of a base section (DRAWER 1) have been

calculated. To obtain dimensions without decimal numbers, these have been rounded

upwards. From the base section, 4 additional sections have been defined, increasing

the original dimensions from 10% to 40%, which means that there are 5 different

sections for the box beam.

The thickness of the wings tf and that of the souls tw has been unified into a single

value t (the greater of both) to simplify the process, remaining on the side of safety.

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

55

The properties of the sections with respect to their strong axis are:

The 5 sections will be considered and the minor that meets the ELS and ELU

verifications will be adopted as final.

10.4.2 Sizing / checking

10.4.2.1 ELS Deformation

In the first place the smaller section is used, that is, DRAWER 1. From the combination

of actions 1 · SG + 1 · SL the value of the maximum arrow produced in the beam is

obtained. Check that the arrow does not exceed the permissible value:

𝐹 ≤ 𝐹𝑎𝑑𝑚

The maximum permissible arrow is set to L / 1000. Where L = 50 m, Fadm = 0.050 m.

Figure 10-5. Arrow of the beam with the CAJÓN 5 section

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

56

Therefore, the CAJÓN 5 section is taken and then the ELUs are verified.

10.4.2.2 ELU Resistance of sections

For the verification of the different ELU, the combination of actions 1.11 · SG + 1.30 · SL

will be used.

The maximum efforts in the beam have the following values:

Bending moment

According to Article 6.2.5 of the standard EN 1993-1-1 [A], the calculation value of the

bending moment MEd in each cross section must comply with:

being Mc, Rd, for class 3 sections:

Shear stress

According to Article 6.2.6 of [A], the shear calculation value VEd must comply:

Page 57: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

57

Interaction of stress S

ection 6.2.8 of [A] states that when the shear stress is less than half the plastic shear

strength Vpl, Rd, its effect on bending resistance can be neglected. That is, it must be

fulfilled:

Therefore, there is no shear interaction.

10.4.2.3 ELU Instability

Uniform elements subjected to bending

According to Article 6.3.2.1 of [A], elements without lateral bracing subject to bending

around the strong axis must satisfy the following relationship:

Where Mb, Rd is the calculation resistance to bending versus lateral buckling. For class

3 sections, it can be calculated as:

where χLT is the reduction coefficient due to lateral buckling:

Page 58: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

58

Where:

αLT is an imperfection coefficient whose values appear in Table 6.3 [A] and depend on

the buckling curve. Table 6.4 [A] proposes the choice of the buckling curve depending

on the type of cross section.

Thus, for sections different from those formed in I, the buckling curve d must be

chosen, which implies αLT = 0.76.

Mcr is obtained from various parameters, such as the characteristics of the cross

section, loading conditions or lateral bracing.

The partial results can be found in the following table:

Applying the proposed condition at the beginning of this section:

Therefore, the beam does not reach the lateral buckling ELU. When all the

requirements are fulfilled, the beam with the Cajon 5 section is a valid alternative for

the execution of the crane.

10.4.3 Quantity of steel used

The amount of steel needed to build the beam will be:

10.5 Option 4. Three-dimensional lattice beam with SHS

profiles

10.5.1 Description of the model

The following considered option consists of the use of a beam in spatial lattice of

triangular section and constant edge. This type of lattices are stable by themselves, do

not need external bracing and can support loads in all directions.

Lattice beams are characterized by the light L, the height or edge h, the arrangement

of the filling bars and the distance between nodes. The height is conditioned by the

load, the light, the admissible arrow, etc. Increasing h reduces the efforts in the cords

but increases the lengths of the filling bars. The song is usually between L / 10 and L /

15.

A lattice structure is normally designed in order to transmit the loads applied by axial

stresses in the bars. However, in the lattice girders of tubular profiles the cords are

usually continuous, and the filling bars are usually welded on them. Therefore,

secondary bending moments are generated both in the bars and in the joints. Even so,

it is accepted that if the bars and joints are able to redistribute those moments in a

plastic way, the whole can be considered as articulated.

It is considered that approximately 50% of the weight of material corresponds to the

compressed cords, about 30% is contributed by the traction cords and the remaining

20% corresponds to the filling bars. Therefore, if you want to optimize the weight of

the structure, the objective will be placed on the compressed cord.

For the creation of the model using SAP2000 software, it has been considered that:

Laces are continuous elements.

The filler elements are joined at their ends by articulated knots.

All the longitudinal axes of the elements coincide in the nodes.

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

60

10.5.1.1 Profiles used

For the design of this beam, tubular profiles of square section SHS (Square Hollow

Section) according to EN 10210-2 are used. It has been decided to use this type of

tubular bars to the detriment of the CHS (Circular Hollow Section) because the results

in terms of material expenditure are similar and, on the contrary, the execution of

joints between round tubular profiles is much more laborious, since the cuts are

curved. The list of sections to be used will be the range between the SHS 40X40X3 and

the SHS 400X400X16.

10.5.1.2 Beam geometry

Height h and width b Since both the light and the load are high, it has been taken as

the edge of the beam:

Taking into account that L = 50 m,

Likewise, it has been taken as width b:

So,

61

Dimensions of filling bars

The dimensions of the filling bars and the angles they form with respect to the cords

are shown below:

10.5.2 Sizing / checking

The dimensioning of a beam in three-dimensional lattice is more complicated than that

of a beam of full soul as the box beam that has been treated previously, since it is

composed of multiple elements (cords, diagonals and uprights) and all of them

influence their behavior .

10.5.2.1 Predimensioning fill elements

The objective is to define the section of the filling bars so that the program only deals

with sizing the cords and thus reduce the time of calculation of the structure. The

sections obtained with the pre-dimensioning will not be highly optimized, but as its

influence on the total weight of the structure is low, it is an acceptable solution.

Two sections are calculated, one for the compressed diagonals and the end posts (also

compressed), and another for the traction diagonals. For the horizontal uprights a SHS

40X40X3 profile is taken, since the efforts in these bars are very small (around 1 kN).

A lattice beam can be likened to a full-beam beam in which the filling elements are

responsible for absorbing the shearing forces.

Assuming that the upper cord is an SHS 400X400X16 (G = 184 kg / m), and that its

weight is approximately 50% of the total:

Starting from the combination of actions 1.11 · SG + 1.30 · SL used for checking the

ELU, the maximum shear stress in the beam is obtained:

Page 62: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

62

The axil on each diagonal is:

Where ρ = 61.70o the angle formed by the diagonal with the horizontal plane. So:

For compression diagonals, and conservatively, a SHS 120X120X5 profile is adopted,

with a buckling resistance Nb, Rd = 272.44 kN.

For traction diagonals, and also conservatively, a SHS profile 50X50X5 with a tensile

strength Nt, Rd = 309.92 kN is adopted.

10.5.2.2 Final dimensioning

With the filling bars already defined, the cords will be dimensioned. The profiles

obtained are shown in Table 10-2:

Table 10-2. Sections used in the lattice beam

The results of the checks related to the last states according to the standard EN 1993-

1-1 [A] are shown below.

10.5.2.3 ELS Deformation

From the combination of actions 1 · SG + 1 · SL the value of the maximum arrow

produced in the beam is obtained. It must be verified that the arrow does not exceed

the admissible value:

The maximum allowable arrow is set to L / 1000. Where L = 50 m, Fadm = 0.050 m.

Figure 10-7. Arrow of the upper beam of the lattice beam

The bar that the ELU of deformation must comply with is the upper cord (Figure 10-7),

since it is the one that will serve as the base for the carriageway.

10.5.2.4 ELU Resistance of sections

For the verification of the different ELU, the combination of actions 1.11 · SG + 1.30 · SL

will be used.

Table 10-3 shows the maximum stresses (sizing) for each type of bar.

Table 10-3. Dimensioning efforts in the lattice beam

The shear stress and bending moment will be disregarded in all cases except for the

upper bead check.

Axial tensile stress

The traction elements, see the lower cord and the diagonal traction, are checked as

follows.

According to Article 6.2.3 [A], the calculation value of the axial tensile force NEd in

each cross section must comply with:

In the absence of holes, Nt, Rd can be taken as:

10.5.2.5 ELU Instability

Uniform elements subject to compression

The elements requested by compression, as is the case of the horizontal upright, the

extreme upright and the compressed diagonal, are buckled.

According to Article 6.3.1.1 of [A], the compressed elements must satisfy the following

relationship:

where Nb, Rd is the buckling resistance. For sections of class 1,2 or 3, it can be

calculated as:

where χ the buckling reduction coefficient:

Where

65

α is an imperfection coefficient whose values appear in Table 6.1 [A] and depend on

the buckling curve. Table 6.2 [A] proposes the choice of the buckling curve depending

on the type of cross section.

Thus, for hot-finished hollow sections, the buckling curve a, which carries α = 0.21,

must be chosen. Ncr can be obtained as:

The partial results are detailed below:

Applying the proposed condition at the beginning of this section:

Elements subjected to compression and bending

The elements subjected to compression and bending combined as is the case of the

upper cord are checked as indicated in Article 6.6.3 [A] (Equation 6.61):

However, as Mz, Ed = 0, the above equation is:

Where k and y is the interaction coefficient calculated according to Annex B of [A]. In

this case, kyy = 1.018.

On the other hand, χy and χLT are reduction coefficients by compression buckling and

lateral buckling respectively. As it is an element not susceptible to torsional

deformation, χLT = 1.

The SHS 350X350X8 profile is class 4, which, according to Table 6.7 [A]:

Applying the proposed condition at the beginning of this section:

When all the requirements are met, the lattice beam with SHS type profiles is a valid

alternative for the crane's execution.

10.6 Conclusions of the analysis

Table 10-5. Comparison of analysis results

After analyzing the various options available to carry out the execution of the gantry

crane object of this project, it is concluded that:

Options 1 and 2, based on the use of simple hot rolled profiles type IPE and HE

respectively, are a all unviable lights and are discarded. Given the dimensions

of the beam and the magnitude of the load to be supported, at first glance it

was to be expected that they would not be adequate; However, it is important

to analyze them also to have an idea of what their application limit is in this

type of structure.

The third alternative, which involves the use of an armed beam in a drawer, is

totally valid from the structural point of view. Its strong point is the relative

simplicity of manufacture and design, since it is composed of a single element

(although it is also necessary to foresee the use of internal stiffeners and other

reinforcement elements that have not been considered here and that make

design difficult and expensive. His construction). Its main disadvantage is that a

large amount of steel is needed for its construction.

The fourth and last considered alternative, the truss beam with a triangular

section based on SHS tubular profiles, is also valid. Its strong point is the

enormous reduction in steel that it represents compared to the box beam, as

shown in Table 10-5. Its main weakness is the complexity of manufacturing in

the workshop, since the structure has multiple knots. Even so, some of these

knots are identical, so workshop work can be greatly simplified.

Considering all the previous points, we have chosen to choose alternative # 4 to carry

out the final design of the gantry crane. The difference in steel weight used is very

bulky (+ 627%) and covers the difference in manufacturing costs of both alternatives.

In addition, the crane will carry out its activity abroad, and the lattice structures offer a

much lower aerodynamic resistance. Therefore, less powerful drive groups will be

needed, which will mean a lower initial installation cost and lower energy consumption

throughout the entire life of the device.

11 DESIGN OF THE COMPLETE CRANE

11.1 Description of the model

To design the complete crane, the beam in lattice with SHS type tubular profiles

obtained in the analysis of alternatives was taken as a basis. The crane is birraíl, reason

why it is composed of two identical porticos. To form each gantry, the supports have

been added with two supports formed by three tubular profiles as main elements

accompanied by bracing elements. Finally, both gantries are joined by several

reinforcing bars in the upper part and by the bogies or running trains in the lower part.

Figure 11-1 shows the complete crane modeled in SAP2000.

Figura 11-1. Modelo de la grúa pórtico en SAP2000

11.1.1 Design considerations

The following considerations have been made when developing the crane model:

Page 69: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

69

11.1.2 Beams

The geometry of the beams is basically the proposal and calculated in the analysis of

alternatives. However, some reinforcing bars have been added. This is due to the fact

that in the previous study only the effect of the own weight added to the service load,

both actions of gravitational component, has been considered. On the other hand, in

the complete design, in addition to the previous ones, horizontal loads are considered,

such as the action of the wind or the force of inertia due to the movement of the car.

Due to these actions it is necessary to brace the beam in the horizontal plane; To this

end, a series of cross-shaped bars are added in the lower plane of the lattice.

In addition, the section of the tractioned diagonals has been matched with that of the

compressed diagonals, in such a way that all the diagonals are constructed with the

same type of profile. This change is motivated by:

In the previous study, the service load in the center of the beam has been

considered in L / 2. But the load can be moved along the whole beam, with

which the efforts can vary.

Ease of construction. Although placing all the identical diagonals slightly

increases the weight of the structure, it is compensated by the greater ease of

construction to prevent any error at the time of assembly. For example, placing

a bar dimensioned to work with traction in the place of a compressed one

could lead the structure to collapse.

11.1.3 Supports

The efforts in the beams are transmitted to the running gear through the supports.

Each beam rests on two supports executed in latticework with three main profiles each

and various bracing bars to reduce the buckling length.

It has been considered that each bogie has two wheels located at its ends, which

coincide with the connection with the supports. The running gear has not been

included in the model; nevertheless, in the support conditions of the structure its

effect has been taken into account.

11.1.4 Car

The trolley (Figure 11-2), which supports the hoist and moves on the gantry beams, has

dimensions of 5 x 7 m.

In addition, only two of its wheels are motorized, one per head.

Figure 11-2. Scheme of the car-polipast

11.2 Calculation of actions

Following what is explained in Chapter 8, the calculation of the actions that act on the

structure is shown below.

11.2.1 Own weight

The own weight SG of each element can be considered as a linear load distributed

along the same, of gravitational component. It depends on the profiles used in the

construction of the crane, so that its final value will not be known until the final

dimensioning has been obtained.

11.2.2 Service charge

The service load SL has been defined at 50 t. The trolley is supported on the beams by

two wheels per head, with which the service load is divided into four point loads of

12.5 t each.

SL is applied in three different and non-concomitant positions. SL1 and SL3 are applied

at the ends of the beams, the positions being most unfavorable for the supports, while

SL2 is applied in the center of the span, which is the least favorable position for the

beams.

There are 2 wheels per bogie, adding a total of 4 wheels

It has been considered that the service load is in position 2, that is, in the

Table 11-1. Average values of acceleration and speed

For a translation speed of the crane of 0.40 m / s and, including it in group 1

"slow and medium speed with great travel", we have that Tm = 4.1 s and jm =

0.098 m / s2.

Calculation of the force of inertia due to the translation of the gantry:

74

The carriage travel speed has also been set at 0.40 m / s, so, referring to Table

11-1, we have jm = 0.098 m / s2. Therefore, Fcm has the same value as in the

previous section; that is, Fcm = 4.41 kN.

Calculation of the force of inertia due to the carriage translation:

11.2.4 Wind in service The wind is applied in two directions perpendicular to each other. On the one

hand, in normal direction to the plane of the gantry and in both directions

alternately (front wind SW1 and SW2). On the other side, in a direction parallel

to the plane of the portico, also in both directions (lateral wind SW3 and SW4).

Figure 11-7. Wind load in service

First the structure has been calculated without considering the wind loads and

then, once the initial sections of the elements are known, the wind loads have

been added and recalculated. Thus the final sections have been obtained.

11.2.4.1 Wind on the structure According to Table 8-3, for cranes type b) a wind pressure of 0.25 kN / m2 is

taken.

Since the structure is formed by bars of square section, this pressure is divided

between the width of each bar to obtain a linearly distributed force.

According to Table 8-4, for simple lattice frames with flat face profiles, Cf = 1.7

should be taken.

11.2.4.2 Wind on the load For cranes type b), a force is taken on the moving load of:

In cases SW1 and SW2 the resulting force per wheel applied to the structure is f

/ 4:

In cases SW3 and SW4 the resulting force per wheel applied to the structure is f

/ 2, since only 2 of the 4 wheels of the car are motor:

11.2.4.3 Wind out of service The crane will be provided with an anti-tipping device, in such a way that the

wheels are always in contact with the rolling track. For this reason, the action

of the wind out of service, which may involve a loss of balance of the structure

and a rollover situation, is dismissed and is not taken into consideration.

11.3 Calculation hypothesis

11.3.1 ELS For the verification of the ELS of deformation, both the own weight and the

service load applied in the center of the beams (SL2) are combined without

aging, that is, without the application of coefficients. Therefore, the load

hypothesis in this case will be:

11.3.2 ELU Following what is explained in Chapter 9, Table 11-3 shows all the combinations

of actions that have been considered for the sizing of the structure and the

verification of the ELU.

Table 11-3. Increase coefficients of the shares and number of combinations

The process of calculating the structure is as follows:

First, it is calculated with the hypotheses that contain SG, SL, SHC and SHP, that is, the

shares belonging to CASE I except SHO, which depends on the total weight of the

loaded crane. Once the structure is calculated with these hypotheses, SHO is added. It

is resized and, with the obtained profiles, SW is added. With SW you have all the

combinations of CASE II. It is verified that it complies with SW and, if it does not

comply, iterations are carried out until all the bars comply and the design is then

definitive.

11.4 Sizing / checking

11.4.1.1 ELS Deformation

From the combination of actions 1 · SG + 1 · SL2, the value of the maximum arrow

produced in the beam is obtained. It must be verified that the arrow does not exceed

the admissible value:

The maximum allowable arrow is set to L / 1000. Where L = 50 m, Fadm = 0.050 m

Figure 11-8. Arrow of top beam bead

The bar that must meet the deformation ELS is the upper cord (Figure 11-8), since it is

the one that will serve as the basis for the rolling path of the car.

11.4.1.2 ELU Resistance of sections

Due to its low influence, the shear stress and bending moment will be disregarded in

all cases except for the upper bead check.

Axial tensile stress

The traction elements, see the lower cord and the diagonal traction, are checked as

follows.

According to Article 6.2.3 of [A], the calculation value of the axial tensile force NEd in

each cross section must comply:

In the absence of holes, Nt, Rd can be taken as:

11.4.1.3 ELU Instability

Uniform elements subject to compression

Compressed elements are checked for buckling.

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

79

According to Article 6.3.1.1 [A], the compressed elements must satisfy the following

relationship:

where Nb, Rd is the buckling resistance. For sections of class 1,2 or 3, it can be

calculated as:

where χ the buckling reduction coefficient:

Where

α is an imperfection coefficient whose values appear in Table 6.1 [A] and depend on

the buckling curve. Table 6.2 [A] proposes the choice of the buckling curve depending

on the type of cross section.

Thus, for hot-finished hollow sections, the buckling curve a, which carries α = 0.21,

must be chosen.

Ncr can be obtained as:

The partial results are shown below:

Elements subjected to compression and bending

The elements subjected to combined compression and bending, as is the case of the

upper cord, are checked as indicated in Article 6.6.3 [A] (Equation 6.61):

where kyy and kyz are the interaction coefficients calculated according to Annex B [A].

In this case, kyy = 0.424 and kyz = 0.453.

On the other hand, χy and χLT are reduction coefficients by compression buckling and

lateral buckling respectively. As it is an element not susceptible to torsional

deformation, χLT = 1.

The SHS 350X350X10 profile is class 3, which, according to Table 6.7 [A]:

Applying the proposed condition at the beginning of this section:

When all the requirements are fulfilled, it can be ensured that the design with tubular

profiles type SHS in three-dimensional lattice is totally valid for the execution of the

crane.

11.5 Final conclusions

In this chapter the process of dimensioning the structure of a large-span gantry crane

has been shown. After this, it is concluded that:

The structure of a large-span gantry crane has been successfully managed,

having previously selected one of the proposed alternatives and following the

rules set by current regulations. Therefore, the objective of this study is

covered.

The process of calculating a three-dimensional lattice is laborious and, in a

certain way, complicated. The structure contains a large number of elements

and the configuration of each of them depends on the response of the rest.

The applicable regulations for calculating the shares of this type of equipment

is certainly difficult to interpret, apart from being disseminated in various

regulations. Review and unification of these standards in a single document

would be very convenient.

In structures with a separation between supports as large as is the case of this

crane, the design factor is the limitation of the maximum arrow. In this case it

has been taken to the extreme of L / 1000, when the industrial buildings move

in limits of L / 250 or L / 300. Due to this, the various elements are usually

oversized in terms of resistance, but this is necessary to ensure sufficient

flexural rigidity of the entire structural assembly.

1.1.2.4 Order of works

The determination of the order of the works is, generally, the Contractor's faculty,

except in those cases in which, due to circumstances of a technical nature, its variation

is considered convenient by the Facultative Direction.

1.1.2.5 Extension of the project due to unforeseen causes or force

majeure

When it is necessary to extend the Project, due to unforeseen reasons or due to any

incident, the works will not be interrupted, continuing according to the instructions of

97

shoring, demolition, stress or any work of an urgent nature, anticipating this service for

the moment, the amount of which will be entered in an additional budget or paid

directly, according to what is convenient.

1.1.2.6 Interpretations, clarifications and modifications of the project

The Contractor may require the Construction Manager or the Construction Execution

Director of the Work, according to their respective duties and attributions, the

instructions or clarifications that are required for the correct interpretation and

execution of the projected work.

When it comes to interpreting, clarifying or modifying precepts of the Conditions of

Contract or indications of the plans, sketches, orders and corresponding instructions,

they will necessarily be communicated in writing to the Contractor, being this in turn

obliged to return the originals or copies, subscribing with his signature the informed

one, that will appear at the foot of all the orders, warnings and instructions that

receives both of the Director of Execution of the Work, like of the Work Director.

Any claim that the Contractor deems appropriate against the dispositions taken by the

Facultative Direction, will have to direct it, within the period of three days, to the one

who has dictated it, who will give him the corresponding receipt, if he requested it.

1.1.2.7 Extension due to force majeure

If, due to force majeure or independently of the will of the Contractor, the Contractor

could not start the works, had to suspend them or could not finish them within the

established deadlines, he will be granted a prorogation provided for compliance, after

a favorable report from the Construction Director. To this end, the Contractor shall

state, in writing addressed to the Construction Manager, the cause that prevents the

execution or progress of the work and the delay that would arise from the agreed

deadlines, duly reasoning the extension requested by said cause.

1.1.2.8 Responsibility of the facultative management in the delay of the

work

The Contractor may not excuse himself for not having met the stipulated works

deadlines, alleging as a cause the lack of plans or orders of the

Page 98: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

98

Optional Address, except for the case in which, having requested it in writing, it has

not been provided.

1.1.2.9 Defective works

The Contractor must use the materials that meet the conditions required in the

project, and perform each and every one of the contracted works in accordance with

the stipulations.

Therefore, and until the final reception of the building, the Contractor is responsible

for the execution of the work he has hired and the faults and defects that may exist

due to poor execution, not being a defense that the Technical Director it has been

previously examined or recognized, nor the fact that these works have been valued in

the Partial Work Certifications, which will always be understood as extended and paid

to a good account.

As a result of the above, when the Director of Work Execution warns of defects or

defects in the work performed, or that the materials used or the equipment and

equipment placed do not meet the prescribed conditions, either in the course of the

execution of the works or once completed prior to the final reception of the work, may

provide that the defective parts are replaced or demolished and rebuilt according to

what was contracted at the expense of the Contractor. If the latter does not believe

that the decision is just and refuses to order replacement, demolition and

reconstruction, the matter will be brought before the Work Director, who will mediate

to resolve it.

1.1.2.10 Hidden defects

The Contractor is solely responsible for the hidden defects and defects of the

construction, during the execution of the works and the warranty period, up to the

prescribed periods after the completion of the works in the current LOE, apart from

other responsibilities legal or of any kind that may arise.

If the Director of Execution of the Work had well-founded reasons to believe in the

existence of hidden defects of construction in the executed works, he will order, when

he deems it appropriate, to carry out before the definitive reception the tests,

destructive or not, that he considers necessary to recognize or diagnose the work that

supposes defective, giving account of the circumstance to the Director of Work.

Page 99: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

99

The Contractor will demolish, and subsequently rebuild, all the poorly executed work

units, their consequences, damages, and can not escape responsibility for the fact that

the Project Director and / or the Project Execution Director will they have examined or

acknowledged previously, or that part or all of the works that have been poorly

executed have been conformed or paid.

1.1.2.11 Origin of materials, devices and equipment

The Contractor is free to provide materials, equipment and equipment of all kinds

where it deems appropriate and convenient for their interests, except in those cases in

which a provenance and specific characteristics of the project are required.

Obligatory, and before proceeding to its use, storage and commissioning, the

Contractor shall submit to the Construction Execution Director a complete list of the

materials, equipment and equipment to be used, specifying all the indications about its

technical characteristics, brands, qualities, provenance and suitability of each of them.

1.1.2.12 Presentation of samples

At the request of the Construction Manager, the Contractor shall present the samples

of the materials, equipment and equipment, always with the anticipated anticipation

in the work schedule.

1.1.2.13 Defective materials, equipment and equipment

When the materials, appliances, equipment and elements of facilities were not of the

quality and technical characteristics prescribed in the project, did not have the

preparation required in it or when, in the absence of formal requirements, it was

recognized or demonstrated that they are not adequate for its end, the Director of

Work, at the request of the Director of Execution of the Work, will give the order to

the Contractor to replace them with others that satisfy the conditions or are suitable

for the purpose for which they are intended.

If, within 15 days of receiving the Contractor's order to remove the materials that are

not in condition, it has not been complied with, the Promoter or Property may do so

on behalf of the Contractor.

In the event that the materials, devices, equipment or elements of facilities were

defective, but acceptable to the Director of Work,

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

100

they will be received with the reduction of the price that that one determines, unless

the Contractor prefers to replace them by others in conditions.

1.1.2.14 Expenses incurred by tests and trials

All expenses arising from the testing and testing of materials or elements involved in

the execution of the works shall be borne by the Contractor.

Any test that is unsatisfactory, is not performed by omission of the Contractor, or does

not offer sufficient guarantees, may be started again or new tests or tests specified in

the project, at the expense of the Contractor and with the corresponding penalty, may

be carried out. as all the complementary works to which any of the aforementioned

cases may give rise and which the Project Director considers necessary.

1.1.2.1 Cleaning of the works

It is the obligation of the Contractor to keep the works and their surroundings clean of

both debris and leftover materials, remove temporary installations that are not

necessary, as well as execute all the work and adopt the measures that are appropriate

for the work to look good.

1.1.2.2 Works without explicit prescriptions

In the execution of works that belong to the construction of the works, and for which

there are no prescriptions explicitly stated in this Schedule or in the remaining

documentation of the project, the Contractor shall comply, in the first place, with the

instructions issued by the Management Optional works and, secondly, to the norms

and practices of good construction.

1.1.2 Provisions of the receptions of buildings and annexed Works

1.1.3.1 Considerations of a general nature

The reception of the work is the act by which the Contractor, once the work is

completed, delivers it to the Promoter and is accepted by the latter. I will

Page 101: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

101

be done with or without reservations and must cover the entire work or complete and

completed phases of the same, when agreed by the parties.

The reception must be recorded in a document signed, at least, by the Promoter and

the Contractor, stating:

The parties involved.

The date of the final certificate of the entire work or of the complete and

completed phase of the same.

The final cost of the material execution of the work.

The declaration of the reception of the work with or without reservations,

specifying, where appropriate, these in an objective manner, and the term in

which the observed defects must be corrected. Once the same have been

corrected, it will be recorded in a separate record, signed by the signatories of

the reception.

The guarantees that, if applicable, are required of the Contractor to ensure its

responsibilities.

Likewise, the final work certificate signed by the Construction Manager and the

Construction Execution Director will be attached.

The Promoter may reject the reception of the work considering that it is not finished or

that it does not conform to the contractual conditions.

In any case, the rejection must be motivated in writing in the minutes, which will set

the new deadline to make the reception.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise, the reception of the work will take place within

thirty days following the date of its completion, accredited in the final certificate of

work, term that will be counted from the notification made in writing to the developer.

The reception will be understood tacitly produced if after thirty days from the date

indicated the promoter would not have shown reservations or rejection motivated in

writing.

The computation of the terms of responsibility and guarantee will be as established in

the L.O.E., and will start from the date on which the record of reception is signed, or

when it is understood tacitly produced as provided in the previous section.

1.1.3.2 Provisional reception

Thirty days before the completion of the works, the Director of Work Execution will

inform the Promoter or Property of the proximity of its completion in order to agree

on the act of Provisional Reception.

Page 102: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

102

This will be done with the intervention of the Property, the Contractor, the

Construction Manager and the Construction Execution Director. The other technicians

will also be summoned, who, if applicable, would have intervened in the management

with their own function in partial aspects or specialized units.

After a thorough recognition of the works, an act will be issued with as many copies as

there are participants and signed by all of them. From this date, the warranty period

will begin to run, if the works are in the state of being admitted. Next, the Technicians

of the Direction will extend the corresponding Certificate of End of Work.

When the works are not in the status of being received, it will be expressly stated in

the Minutes and the Contractor will be given the appropriate instructions to correct

the observed defects, setting a deadline to correct them, after which a new

acknowledgment will be made in order to proceed to the provisional reception of the

work.

If the Contractor has not complied, the contract with the loss of the bond may be

declared terminated.

1.1.3.3 Final documentation of the work

The Director of Work Execution, assisted by the Contractor and the technicians who

have intervened in the work, will write the final documentation of the works, which

will be provided to the Promoter, with the specifications and contents provided by the

legislation in force.

1.1.3.4 Final measurement and provisional settlement of the work

Once the works have been provisionally received, the Director of Work Execution will

proceed immediately to its final measurement, with the precise assistance of the

Contractor or his representative. The timely certification will be extended in triplicate

which, approved by the Construction Manager with his signature, will be used for the

payment by the Promoter of the resulting balance minus the amount withheld as a

deposit.

1.1.3.5 Warranty period

The guarantee period must be stipulated in the private contract and, in any case, it

must never be less than six months.

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

103

1.1.3.6 Conservation of works provisionally received

The expenses of conservation during the term of guarantee included between the

provisional and definitive receptions, will be borne by the Contractor.

If the building is occupied or used before the final reception, the daycare, cleaning and

repairs caused by the use will be borne by the Property and repairs for defects in work

or defects in the facilities, will be borne by the Contractor.

1.1.3.7 Definitive reception

The final reception will be made after the warranty period has elapsed, in the same

way and with the same formalities as the provisional one. From that date, the

Contractor's obligation to repair at his charge any damage inherent to the normal

conservation of the buildings will cease, and all the liabilities that could derive from the

defects of construction will remain.

1.1.3.8 Extension of the guarantee period

If, when proceeding to the recognition for the definitive reception of the work, it is not

found in the proper conditions, said definitive reception will be postponed and the

Construction Director will indicate to the Contractor the deadlines and forms in which

the necessary works must be carried out. If not done within those, the contract may be

resolved with the loss of the bond.

1.1.3.9 Receptions of works whose contract has been rescinded

In the event of termination of the contract, the Contractor shall be obliged to

withdraw, within the term fixed, the machinery, facilities and auxiliary means, to

resolve the subcontracts that had been arranged and to leave the work in condition to

be resumed by another company without any problem.

The completed works and works will be provisionally received with the procedures

previously established. Once the warranty period has expired, they will be definitively

received as previously stated.

For works and works not determined, but acceptable in the opinion of the

Construction Manager, a single and definitive reception will be made.

1.2 Optional Provisions

1.2.1 Definition, attributions and obligations of building agents

The attributions of the different agents involved in the building are those regulated by

the Law 38/99 on Building Regulation (L.O.E.).

Building agents are defined all the people, physical or legal, who are involved in the

building process. Their obligations are determined by the provisions of L.O.E. and other

provisions that are applicable and by the contract that originates their intervention.

The definitions and functions of the agents that take part in the construction are

included in chapter III "Building agents", considering:

management to carry out the work initially planned, and takes charge of all the

necessary costs.

According to the legislation in force, the figure of the promoter also equates those of

manager of cooperative societies, communities of owners, or other analogous that

assume the economic management of the building.

When public administrations and bodies subject to the legislation of public

administration contracts act as promoters, they will be governed by the legislation of

public administration contracts and, in matters not contemplated therein, by the

provisions of the L.O.E.

1.2.1.2 The Designer

It is the agent who, on behalf of the promoter and subject to the corresponding

technical and urban regulations, drafts the project.

They will be able to draft partial projects of the project, or parts that complement it,

other technicians, in a coordinated way with the author of this one.

105

When the project is developed or completed by partial projects or other technical

documents as foreseen in section 2 of article 4 of the L.O.E., each designer will assume

the ownership of his project.

1.2.1.3 The Builder or Contractor

It is the agent that assumes, contractually before the Promoter, the commitment to

execute with human and material means, own or external, the works or part of them

subject to the Project and the Contract of work.

SPECIAL MENTION MUST BE MADE THAT THE LAW INDICATES AS EXPRESSLY

RESPONSIBLE FOR CONSTRUCTION VICES OR DEFECTS TO THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR

OF THE WORK, WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO THE RIGHT OF REPETITION OF THIS TO THE

SUBCONTRACTORS.

1.2.1.4 The Construction Director

It is the agent that, as part of the facultative management, directs the development of

the work in the technical, aesthetic, urban and environmental aspects, in accordance

with the project that defines it, the building license and other mandatory

authorizations, and the conditions of the contract, in order to ensure its adequacy to

the proposed purpose.

They will be able to direct the works of the partial projects other technicians, under

the coordination of the Construction Director.

1.2.1.5 The Director of the Execution of the Work

It is the agent that, forming part of the Facultative Direction, assumes the technical

function of directing the Material Execution of the Work and of qualitatively and

quantitatively controlling the construction and quality of the construction. For this, the

preliminary study and analysis of the execution project once drafted by the Architect is

indispensable, proceeding to request, in advance of the start of the works, all those

clarifications, corrections or complementary documents that, within its competence

and legal attributions. estere necessary to be able to lead in a solvent way the

execution of the same.

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

106

1.2.1.6 Entities and laboratories for quality control of the building

Building quality control entities are those qualified to provide technical assistance in

the verification of the quality of the project, the materials and the execution of the

work and its facilities in accordance with the project and applicable regulations.

They are laboratories of tests for the quality control of the edificación the able ones to

give technical assistance, by means of the realization of tests or tests of service of the

materials, systems or facilities of a construction work.

1.2.1.7 Product suppliers

Producers of products are manufacturers, stockists, importers or sellers of

construction products.

Construction product is understood to be that which is manufactured for permanent

incorporation into a work, including materials, semi-finished elements, components

and works or parts of them, both finished and in the process of execution.

1.2.2 The Facultative Direction

In correspondence with the L.O.E., the Facultative Direction is composed of the

Construction Management and the Construction Execution Direction. The Coordinator

will be in charge of the Health and Safety in the execution phase of the work, in the

event that the mission has been awarded to a doctor different from the previous ones.

It represents technically the interests of the promoter during the execution of the

work, directing the construction process according to the professional attributions of

each participating technician.

1.2.3 Optional visits

They are those made to the work jointly or individually by any of the members that

make up the Facultative Management. The intensity and number of visits will depend

on the tasks assigned to each agent, and may vary depending on the specific

requirements and the greater or lesser requirement required to the technician to the

effect in each case and

Page 107: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

107

according to each of the phases of the work. They must adapt to the logical process of

construction, and the agents may or may not coincide in the work depending on the

specific phase that is being developed at each moment and the task required of each

one.

1.2.4 Obligations of the intervening agents

The obligations of the agents involved in the building are those contained in articles 9,

10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16, chapter III of the L.O.E. and other applicable legislation.

1.3 Economic Provisions

1.3.1 Definition

The economic conditions set the framework of economic relations for the payment

and reception of the work. They have a subsidiary nature with respect to the work

contract, established between the parties involved, Promoter and Contractor, which is

ultimately the one that is valid.

1.3.2 Contract of work

It is advisable to sign the contract of work, between the Promoter and the Contractor,

before starting the works, avoiding as much as possible the realization of the work by

administration.

The Project Management (Project Director and Project Execution Director) will be

provided with a copy of the work contract, in order to certify the agreed terms. It is

only advisable to contract for administration those irrelevant work items that are

difficult to quantify, or when a very careful finish is desired.

The work contract must foresee the possible interpretations and discrepancies that

may arise between the parties, as well as ensuring that the Project Management can,

in fact, COORDINATE, DIRECT and CONTROL the work, so it is convenient that they be

specified and clearly determined. , as a minimum, the following points:

Documents to be contributed by the Contractor.

Conditions of occupation of the site and start of works.

Determination of the expenses of hookups and consumptions.

Page 108: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

108

Responsibilities and obligations of the Contractor: Labor legislation.

Responsibilities and obligations of the Promoter.

Contractor's Budget. Price review (if applicable).

Payment method: Certifications. Withholdings as guarantee (never less than

5%).

Deadlines: Planning.

Delay of the work: Penalties.

Reception of the work: Provisional and definitive.

Litigation between the parties.

Given that this Schedule of Economic Conditions is a complement to the work contract,

in the event that there is no contract for any work between the parties, it will be

communicated to the Facultative Office, which will make available to the parties the

present Bidding Terms of Economic Conditions that may be be used as a basis for the

drafting of the corresponding work contract.

1.3.3 General Criterion

All the agents involved in the construction process, defined in the Law 38/1999 of

Building Regulation (LOE), have the right to receive punctually the amounts accrued for

their correct performance in accordance with the contractually established conditions,

being able to demand reciprocally enough guarantees for the diligent fulfillment of

their payment obligations.

1.3.4 Bonds

The Contractor shall present a bond in accordance with the procedure stipulated in the

works contract:

1.3.4.1 Execution of works under the bail

If the contractor refuses to do on his own the work required to complete the work

under the contracted conditions, the Construction Manager, on behalf of the

Promoter, will order them to execute a third party, or may do them directly by

administration, paying their amount with the deposit deposited, without prejudice to

the actions to which the Promoter is entitled, in the event that the amount of the

deposit is not sufficient to cover the amount of the expenses incurred in the units of

work that were not receipt.

Page 109: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

109

1.3.4.2 Refund of the bonds

The bail received will be returned to the Contractor within a period established in the

work contract, once the Final Acceptance Certificate of the work has been signed. The

Promoter may demand that the Contractor credits him with the settlement and

settlement of his debts caused by the execution of the work, such as salaries, supplies

and subcontracts.

1.3.4.3 Refund of the deposit in the case of partial receptions

If the Promoter, with the agreement of the Construction Director, agrees to make

partial receptions, the Contractor shall have the right to return the proportional part of

the deposit.

1.3.5 Prices

The main objective of the preparation of the budget is to anticipate the cost of the

process of building the work. We will decompose the budget into work units, a minor

component that is contracted and certified separately, and based on those prices, we

will calculate the budget.

1.3.5.1 Basic price

It is the price per unit (ud, m, kg, etc.) of a material available on site, (including

transport to work, unloading on site, packaging, etc.) or the hourly price of machinery

and equipment. workforce.

1.3.5.2 Unit price

It is the price of a unit of work that we will obtain as a sum of the following costs:

Direct costs: calculated as the sum of the "basic price x quantity" products of

the labor, machinery and materials that intervene in the execution of the work

unit.

Auxiliary means: Complementary direct costs, calculated as a percentage as a

percentage of other components, because they represent the direct costs

involved in the execution of the work unit and which are difficult to quantify.

They are different for each unit of work.

Page 110: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

110

Indirect costs: applied as a percentage of the sum of direct costs and auxiliary

means, equal for each unit of work because they represent the costs of the

factors necessary for the execution of the work that do not correspond to any

unit of work in concrete.

In relation to the composition of prices, the current General Regulation of the

Contracts Law of Public Administrations (Royal Decree 1098/2001, of October 12)

establishes that the composition and calculation of the prices of the different work

units it is based on the determination of the direct and indirect costs required for its

execution, without including, in any case, the amount of the Value Added Tax that may

be levied on deliveries of goods or services rendered.

Consider direct costs:

The labor force that intervenes directly in the execution of the work unit.

The materials, at the resulting prices on site, that are integrated into the unit in

question or that are necessary for its execution.

The personnel, fuel, energy, etc. expenses that take place due to the operation

or operation of the machinery and facilities used in the execution of the work

unit.

The amortization and conservation expenses of the aforementioned machinery

and facilities.

The following should be included as indirect costs:

The expenses for the installation of offices on site, communications, building of

warehouses, workshops, temporary pavilions for workers, laboratories, etc., those

of technical and administrative personnel assigned exclusively to the work and the

contingencies. All these expenses, except those that are reflected in the budget

valued in units of work or in raised items, will be calculated in a percentage of the

direct costs, equal for all the units of work, which will be adopted, in each case, by

the author of the project in view of the nature of the projected work, the

importance of its budget and its expected execution period.

The technical characteristics of each work unit, in which all the necessary

specifications are included for its correct execution, can be found in the section on

'Prescriptions regarding Execution by

Page 111: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

111

Work Unit ', together with the description of the execution process of the work

unit.

If the description of the execution process of the work unit does not include any

necessary operation for its correct execution, it is understood that it is included in

the price of the work unit, so it will not involve an additional charge or increase in

the price of the work unit. unit of work contracted.

1.3.5.3 Material Execution Budget (MEB)

It is the result of the sum of the unit prices of the different units of work that

compose it. The Budget of Material Execution is the result obtained by the sum of

the products of the number of each unit of work by its unit price and the raised

items. That is, the cost of the work without including general expenses, industrial

profit and value added tax.

1.3.5.4 Contradictory prices

There will only be contradictory prices when the Promoter, through the

Construction Manager, decides to introduce units or quality changes in any of the

foreseen ones, or when it is necessary to face some unexpected circumstance.

The Contractor will always be obliged to make the indicated changes.

In the absence of agreement, the price will be resolved contradictorily between the

Project Manager and the Contractor before beginning the execution of the works

and within the term determined by the work contract or, failing that, within fifteen

working days from the start of the work. communicate convincingly to the

Construction Director. If the difference persists, we will go, first, to the more

analogous concept within the project's price table and, second, to the most

frequently used price bank in the locality.

The contradictory ones that there would be will always refer to the unitary prices

of the date of the contract of work. The date of the execution of the unit of work in

question will never be taken for the valuation of the corresponding contradictory

prices.

1.3.5.5 Claim for price increase

If the Contractor, before signing the works contract, has not made the claim or

timely observation, it can not under any pretext of error or

Page 112: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

112

omission to claim an increase in the prices fixed in the corresponding table of the

budget that serves as the basis for the execution of the works.

1.3.5.6 Traditional ways of measuring or applying prices

In no case may the Contractor claim the local customs and practices regarding the

application of the prices or the way of measuring the executed work units. It will be

as foreseen in the Budget and in the measurement criteria in the work included in

the Bidding Document.

1.3.5.7 Of the revision of contracted prices

The budget presented by the Contractor is understood to be closed, therefore no

price revision will be applied.

Price revision will only be carried out when it has been explicitly determined in the

work contract between the Promoter and the Contractor.

1.3.5.8 Collection of materials

The Contractor is obliged to execute the supplies of materials or work equipment

that the Promoter orders in writing.

The materials collected, once paid by the owner, are the exclusive property of the

owner, being the Contractor responsible for their storage and conservation.

1.3.6 Works by administration

They are called "Works by administration" those in which the steps required for its

realization are carried out directly by the Promoter, either by itself, by a

representative thereof or through a Contractor.

The works by administration are classified in two modalities:

Works by direct administration.

Works by delegated or indirect administration. Depending on the type of

contract, the work contract will regulate:

Its settlement.

The payment to the Contractor of the delegated administration accounts.

The rules for the acquisition of materials and equipment.

Page 113: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

113

Responsibilities of the Contractor in contracting by administration in general

and, in particular, due to the low performance of the workers.

1.3.7 Assessment and payment of the Works

1.3.7.1 Form and deadlines for payment of works

It will be carried out by work certifications and the conditions will be included in the

work contract established between the parties involved (Promoter and Contractor),

which is ultimately valid.

Payments will be made by the property within the terms previously established in the

contract of work, and its amount will correspond precisely to the certifications of the

work formed by the Director of Execution of the Work, by virtue of which they are

verified.

The Construction Execution Director will carry out, in the form and conditions

established by the measurement criteria in the work incorporated in the Prescriptions

in terms of Execution by Unit of Work, the measurement of the work units executed

during the previous period of time, the Contractor may witness the performance of

such measurements.

For the works or parts of work that, by their dimensions and characteristics, have to be

later and definitely hidden, the contractor is obliged to notify the Director of the Work

Execution with sufficient advance, so that he can perform the corresponding

measurements and data collection, raising the planes that define them, whose

compliance the Contractor will subscribe.

In the absence of advance notice, whose existence corresponds to prove to the

Contractor, he is obliged to accept the decisions of the Promoter on the subject.

1.3.7.2 Valuable relationships and certifications

In the terms established in the contract of work between the Promoter and the

Contractor, the latter will formulate a valued relation of the works executed during the

scheduled dates, according to the measurement practiced by the Director of Execution

of the Work.

The work certifications will be the result of applying, to the amount of work actually

executed, the contracted prices of the work units. However, the excesses of work done

in units, such as excavations

Page 114: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

114

and concrete, which are attributable to the Contractor, will not be subject to any

certification. The payments will be made by the Promoter within the periods

previously established, and their amount will correspond to the work certifications,

formed by the Facultative Management.

They will have the character of document and deliveries to a good account, subject to

the rectifications and variations that derive from the Final Liquidation, neither

assuming such partial certifications the acceptance, approval, nor reception of the

works they comprise.

The valued relationships will contain only the work executed within the term to which

the valuation refers. If the Facultative Direction requires it, the certifications will be

extended to origin.

1.3.7.3 Improvement of freely executed works

When the Contractor, even with the authorization of the Construction Director, used

materials of more careful preparation or of greater size than the one indicated in the

project or substituted a class of factory for another one that had assigned a higher

price, or executed with greater dimensions any part of the work, or, in general,

introduced in it and without requesting it, any other modification that is beneficial in

the opinion of the Facultative Direction, will have no right other than the payment of

what could correspond to it in the event that the work had been built with strict

subjection to the projected and contracted or awarded.

1.3.7.4 Payment of works budgeted with a lump sum

The payment of the works budgeted in a lump sum will be made prior justification by

the Contractor. For this purpose, the Construction Manager shall indicate to the

Contractor, prior to its execution, the procedure to be followed to maintain said

account.

1.3.7.5 Payment of special jobs not contracted

When it is necessary to carry out any type of work of a special or ordinary nature that,

because it is not contracted, is not of the Contractor's account, and if they are not

contracted with a third person, the Contractor will have to perform them and satisfy

the expenses of all class that they cause, which will be paid by the Property separately

and under the conditions stipulated in the contract of work.

Page 115: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

115

1.3.7.6 Payment of works executed during the warranty period

Once the provisional reception was made, and if during the warranty period any work

had been carried out, for its payment, the following procedure will be followed:

If the works carried out were specified in the Project, and without just cause,

they would not have been carried out by the Contractor. In due time, and the

Project Manager required its completion during the warranty period, they will

be valued at the prices included in the Budget and paid in accordance with the

provisions of these Terms and Conditions, without being subject to price

revision.

If precise works have been executed for the repair of damages caused by the

use of the building, since it has been used during that period by the Promoter,

they will be valued and paid at the previously agreed prices of the day.

If work has been carried out for the repair of damages caused by deficiency of

the construction or the quality of the materials, nothing shall be paid by them

to the Contractor.

1.3.8 Mutual Compensation

1.3.8.1 Compensation for delaying the completion period of the works

If, for reasons attributable to the Contractor, the works are delayed in their completion

in relation to the expected execution period, the Promoter may impose the

Contractor, with a charge to the last certification, the penalties established in the

contract, which shall never be less than prejudice that could cause the delay of the

work.

116

Work increases will only be allowed in the units contracted, in the event that the

Project Manager has ordered in writing the extension of those contracted as a result of

observing errors in the project measurements.

In both cases it will be an indispensable condition that both contracting parties, before

their execution or employment, agree in writing the total amounts of the improved

units, the prices of the new materials or machinery ordered to be used and the

increases that all these improvements or increases of work suppose over the amount

of the contracted units.

The same criteria and procedure will be followed when the Project Manager

introduces innovations that imply a reduction in the amounts of the contracted work

units.

1.3.8.4 Defective work units

Defective works will not be valued.

1.3.8.5 Construction insurance

The Contractor is obliged to insure the contracted work during the entire duration of

performed, shall be borne by the Contractor, provided that the contract of work does

not stipulate otherwise.

1.3.9 Withholdings as collateral

A percentage will be deducted from the total amount of the certifications, which will

be retained as a guarantee. This value must never be less than five percent (5%) and

will be liable for poorly executed work and for the damages that may be caused to the

Promoter.

This withholding as a guarantee will remain in the hands of the Promoter during the

time designated as the WARRANTY PERIOD, which can be said retention, "in cash" or

through a bank guarantee guaranteeing the total amount of the retention.

If the Contractor refuses to do on his own the work required to complete the work

under the contracted conditions, the Project Manager, on behalf of the Promoter, will

order them to execute a third party, or may do them directly by administration, paying

the amount with the deposit deposited, without prejudice to the actions to which the

Promoter is entitled, in the event that the amount of the deposit is not sufficient to

cover the amount of the expenses incurred in the units of work that were not of

receipt.

The bond retained as a guarantee will be returned to the Contractor within the period

stipulated in the contract, once the Final Acceptance Certificate of the work has been

signed. The developer may demand that the Contractor credit him with the settlement

and settlement of his debts attributable to the execution of the work, such as salaries,

supplies or subcontracts.

These materials will be recognized by the Director of Work Execution before their use

on site, without whose approval they can not be collected on site, nor can they be

placed. Likewise, even after placed on site, those materials that present defects not

perceived in the first recognition, whenever it is detrimental to the good finish of the

work, will be removed from the work. All expenses incurred will be borne by the

Contractor.

The fact that the Contractor subcontracts any item of work does not exempt him from

his responsibility.

The simple inspection or examination by the Technicians does not imply the absolute

reception of the same, being the appropriate tests that determine their suitability, not

extinguishing the contractual responsibility of the Contractor for these purposes until

the definitive reception of the work.

2.1.1 Quality assurance (CE Marking)

The term construction product is defined as any product manufactured for its

incorporation, on a permanent basis, to building and civil engineering works that have

an impact on the following essential requirements:

and conditions established in the municipal ordinances, or in industrial sacks with a

volume of less than one cubic meter, being duly marked and segregated from the rest

of the waste.

Those valuable waste, such as wood, plastic, scrap, etc., will be deposited in properly

marked and segregated containers from the rest of the waste, in order to facilitate its

management.

Page 132: Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry …...Design and calculation of the structure of a gantry crane with 50 t of capacity and 50 m of span. MEMORIA PRESENTADA POR:

Jorge Poveda Catalán Nº 1171744 PESTM

132

The person in charge of the work to which the container provides service will adopt

the pertinent measures to prevent the deposit of residues foreign to it. The containers

will remain closed or covered outside of working hours, in order to avoid the deposit of

remains foreign to the work and the spillage of the waste.

In the construction team, the human, technical and separation methods that will be

dedicated to each type of RCD must be established.

The requirements established in the municipal ordinances, the requirements and

conditions of the work license must be complied with, especially if they oblige the

separation at source of certain materials subject to recycling or deposition, the builder

or the work manager having to carry out an economic evaluation of the conditions in

which this operation is viable, considering the real possibilities of carrying it out, that is

to say, that the work or construction allows it and that suitable recycling plants or

managers are available.

The constructor must carry out a strict documentary control, so that the transporters

and managers of RCD present the vouchers for each withdrawal and delivery at the

final destination.

In the event that the waste is reused in other works or restoration projects,

documentary evidence of the final destination must be provided. The remains derived

from the washing of the gutters of the prefabricated concrete supply tanks will be

considered as waste and managed accordingly (LER 17 01 01).

The contamination by toxic or dangerous products of plastic materials, wood remains,

stockpiles or rubbish containers will be avoided, in order to proceed to its proper

segregation.

The surface lands that can be used for gardening or the recovery of degraded soils, will

be carefully removed and stored for the shortest possible time, arranged in ridges not

higher than 2 meters, avoiding excessive humidity, handling and contamination
