Proposed Wording ANSI 30.11 Monorail and Underhung ANSI 30.17 Overhead and Gantry cranes Top running bridge, single girder, underhung hoist ANSI 30.2 Overhead and Gantry Top running bridge, single or multiple girder, top running trolley hoist Notes/Comments
Overhead cranes WAC 296-880-200 WAC 296-880-200 Introduction WAC 296-880-200 through 296-88024015 apply to the following styles of cranes, whether power-driven or hand operated, as well as to related equipment: Cranes with top running or underhung bridges using top or underhung trolleys. Gantry, semigantry, and cantilever gantry cranes. Wall or pedestal mounted jib cranes. Polar cranes. Monorail systems. Section 11-0.1: Scope Within the general scope defined in Section I, B30.11 applies to underhung cranes and monorail systems where load-carrying members, such as end trucks or carriers (trolleys) travel either on the external or internal (See Fig. 9) lower flange of a runway track section, single monorail track, crane bridge girder, or jib boom (see Fig 1), including all curves, switches, transfer devices, lift and drop sections, and associated equipment. This volume includes provisions of both power-driven and hand-operated equipment on which the carriers are independently controlled. This equipment is grouped together because of the similarity of construction and because of common considerations which are peculiar to this type of equipment. Systems used for transporting personnel require special considerations and are not included in this volume. Also excluded from this volume are conveyor systems, including power and free conveyors. Section 17-0.1: Scope Within the general scope defined in Section I, B30.17 applies to overhead and gantry cranes with a top running bridge, of singlegirder construction, using one or more underhung hoists (See ASME B30.16) operating on the bottom flange of the bridge girder. This Volume includes both power driven and hand-operated equipment. Section 2-0.1 Scope Within the general scope defined in Section I, B30.2 applies to overhead and gantry cranes with a top running bridge of single or multiple girder construction, utilizing a top running trolley, including polar, semigantry, cantilever gantry, wall cranes, and others having the same fundamental characteristics. This volume includes both power-driven and hand operated equipment. These cranes are grouped because they all have top running trolleys and similar travel characteristics.
