Question

Which cross-sections and which cross-sections as reinforcement of a crane runway girder are allowed for the design in the CRANEWAY add-on module?


Answer:
In the case of rolled sections, you can use the extensive [library] of I-shaped rolled sections,
which can be accessed using the corresponding button (see Image 01). Among others, the following cross-sections are available: I-section series (I, IPE, IPEa, IPEo, IPEv, HE-B, HE-A, HE-M, HE-AA, and so on)

If there is a welded cross-section, you can use the button to define I-shaped, uniaxially symmetric cross-sections (see Image 02).

Angled and channel cross-sections are possible as additional cross-sections. They can be selected as beam cross-sections
in the [Library] or defined using the button (see Image 03).
