Book Overview of Electric Overhead Traveling  EOT  Cranes

Download or read book Overview of Electric Overhead Traveling EOT Cranes written by A. Bhatia and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-09-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An overhead crane, also known as a bridge crane, is a type of crane where the hook and line mechanism runs along a horizontal beam that itself travels on the two widely separated rails. Often it is in a factory building and runs along rails mounted on the two long walls. A gantry crane is similar to an overhead crane, but here the bridge carrying the trolley is rigidly supported on two or more legs moving on fixed rails embedded in the floor. Overhead traveling cranes are also available in various configurations. The two main categorizations are top-running versus under-running bridge cranes and single-girder versus double-girder bridge cranes. Crane travel is directed by an operator, either manually or with a wired pendant station or wireless controls that guide their electric- or pneumatic-powered travel. Typical uses include multi-directional movement of materials through the production process, support manufacturing, transporting heavy items to and from storage areas, loading or unloading activities inside a warehouse or onto open trailers or railcars. This 6-hr course presents an overview of electric overhead travelling cranes and discusses the mechanical aspects of appropriate selection and includes civil, structural and electric design parameters. This course is aimed at mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, structural engineers, construction engineers, factory and workshop operators, supervisors, O & M professionals, facility managers, estimators and general audience. No specific prerequisite training or experience is required. The course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of course materials. Learning Objective At the conclusion of this course, the reader will: -Learn about various types of overhead cranes. -Describe the components and terminology of overhead cranes. -Understand crane duty groups and service classification such as CMAA, HMI/ASME, FEM and ISO. -Learn about various types of hoists, their application and safety features. -Understand the various types of loads (forces) on the crane runway girder and the building structure. -Learn the methods of crane electrification including festoon systems. -Learn the types of motors and enclosures based on NEMA standards. -Understand the electrical grounding requirements per NEC and the control systems. -Learn standard specifications covering mechanical, structural, and electrical requirements. -Understand the key crane inspection and testing requirements as specified by OSHA.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thougtit that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 31 (thesis year 1986) a total of 11 ,480 theses titles trom 24 Canadian and 182 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base tor these titles reported will greatly enhance the value ot this important annual reterence work. While Volume 31 reports theses submitted in 1986, on occasion, certain univer sities do re port theses submitted in previousyears but not reported at the time.

Book LIMIT STATE DESIGN IN STRUCTURAL STEEL

Download or read book LIMIT STATE DESIGN IN STRUCTURAL STEEL written by M. R. SHIYEKAR and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-05-22 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition has incorporated all the revisions necessitated after the issue of Amendment No. 1 of January 2012 to IS 800:2007. The book is primarily designed for the students of civil/structural engineering at all levels of studies—undergraduate, postgraduate and diploma—as well as for the professionals in the field of structural steel design. It covers the fundamental concepts of steel design in the perspective of the limit state design concept as per IS 800:2007, with the focus on cost-effective design of industrial structures, foot bridges, portal frames, and pre-engineered buildings. The connection design details are discussed concurrently with the design of members. The book covers the subject matter, with the help of numerous practical illustrations accompanied by step-by-step design calculations and detail-ing, in 14 chapters—including a chapter on pre-engineered buildings. Solved examples as well as exercises are provided in each chapter to enable the development of a strong understanding of the underlying concepts and for testing the comprehension acquired by the students. The geometrical properties of rolled steel sections, often required as per the revised clauses of IS 800:2007 and not appearing in the existing steel tables, are given in the Appendix A for ready reference.

Book Expansion Joints in Buildings

Download or read book Expansion Joints in Buildings written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1974-02-01 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many factors affect the amount of temperature-induced movement that occurs in a building and the extent to which this movement can occur before serious damage develops or extensive maintenance is required. In some cases joints are being omitted where they are needed, creating a risk of structural failures or causing unnecessary operations and maintenance costs. In other cases, expansion joints are being used where they are not required, increasing the initial cost of construction and creating space utilization problems. As of 1974, there were no nationally acceptable procedures for precise determination of the size and the location of expansion joints in buildings. Most designers and federal construction agencies individually adopted and developed guidelines based on experience and rough calculations leading to significant differences in the various guidelines used for locating and sizing expansion joints. In response to this complex problem, Expansion Joints in Buildings: Technical Report No. 65 provides federal agencies with practical procedures for evaluating the need for through-building expansion joints in structural framing systems. The report offers guidelines and criteria to standardize the practice of expansion joints in buildings and decrease problems associated with the misuse of expansions joints. Expansions Joints in Buildings: Technical Report No. 65 also makes notable recommendations concerning expansion, isolation, joints, and the manner in which they permit separate segments of the structural frame to expand and to contract in response to temperature fluctuations without adversely affecting the buildings structural integrity or serviceability.
