Structural design is a set of processes that assures that the building is capable of resisting applied loads, fulfilling its functions, sustaining its stability. The processes of structural design can be summarized in the following steps:
Cranes are essential elements in many industrial buildings, as they are used to lift and handle heavy equipment, tools, and materials within the coverage area. This course involves a deep study on the crane loads on structural elements of industrial buildings according to the latest US standards ASCE7-16, Design Guide No.7 (Industrial Building Design-Third Edition), CMMA-Technical Report.No.74, 2015, and IBC2018. All course equations are presented using ASD and LRFD methods.
In this course, we will discuss the primary crane loads for single cranes, such as vertical, impact, side thrust, braking, tractive, skewing, test, and torsional loads. We will demonstrate how to apply those loads to runway beams, portal frames, and braced frames and cover how to study multiple cranes in different cases, such as single crane aisles with multiple cranes, multiple crane aisles with single cranes, and multiple crane aisles with multiple cranes. Additionally, we will address the application of other loads to crane supporting structures, such as wind, ice, and snow loads.

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Types of cranes and runways
- Crane vertical and impact forces
- Crane lateral and longitudinal forces
- Crane stop force and collision force
- Crane skewing force, and eccentric crane forces
- Other loads acting on crane supporting elements, such as wind, seismic, ice, snow, and test loads
- Load combinations of cranes
- Application of crane loads to runway systems and supporting structures
- Multiple crane loading conditions
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 20 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
