Crane Beam

Crane Beam

Details
A crane beam, also known as a runway beam, is a load-bearing component specifically designed to support and guide overhead cranes. A simple way to picture it is like a track installed on the factory columns, with the crane being the "train" that moves along it. It directly carries the total load from the crane itself and the weight it lifts, transferring all these forces into the building's main structure.

Key Features

 

  • High Load Capacity

H/I beam section with Q235B / Q355B steel (≥235 / 355 MPa) supports crane loads without permanent deformation.

  • Controlled Straightness

Beam straightness controlled within tolerance (≈L/1000) to maintain smooth crane travel.

  • Easy to Install

Top surface prepared for crane rail fixing, ensuring stable wheel operation and load transfer.

  • Multi-Layer Corrosion Protection

Shot blasting + zinc-rich primer + topcoat (≥120 μm) reduces corrosion in industrial environments.

FAQs

 

Q1: What is the difference between crane beam and runway beam?

Crane beam refers to the main load-bearing beam, while runway beam refers to the full track system including rails.

Q2: Can rails be installed directly on the beam?

Yes, the beam can be prepared for crane rail installation.

Q3: What affects beam selection?

Crane capacity, span, and working conditions.

Q4: Is it suitable for heavy-duty use?

Yes, with proper material and section selection.

Q5: Can coating be customized?

Yes, coating system can be adjusted based on environment.
