Comparison of Analytical and Numerical Approach in Bridge Crane Solution

A crane bridge is a dominant component of all crane. It imperative to pay attention on its strength features and go through analysis. The introductory part this paper points out characteristics crane, mainly materials used produce the bridge, namely S235 structural steel. set analysis main girder single model in means comparing analytical numerical solutions. calculations take into account load beam centre according standard STN 27 0103. designed for 500 kg carrying capacity. solu-tions are represented by finite element method (FEM) Ansys software. intention determine deformation depending weight hoist, de-termine maximum deflection resulted bending stress. Furthermore, one purposes create precise 3D CAD girder. software Catia V5 was design model. IPE 100 profile performed FEM using calculations. results ob-tained computing were only slightly smaller comparison with Results obtained can be considered as more accurate. concluded, such strength-checked future put production.
