I’m am currently writing an article in preparation for a presentation at the AIST Crane Symposium on June 7-9 in Pittsburgh.

This article will be a “deep dive” into the requirements for EOT Crane runway alignment tolerances, and installation practices.

After reviewing my reference library (about 52 gigs of crane-related books, brochures, white papers, etc.), the four documents that will be the foundation of my paper are;

1. CMAA 70-2015 Specifications for Top Running Bridge and Gantry Cranes- Multiple Girder

2. CMAA 74-2015 Specification for Top Running and Under Running Single Girder Cranes Utilizing Under Running Trolley Hoists

3. MBMA (2018) Metal Buildings System Manual

4. AISC Industrial Buildings- Design Guide 7 (2nd edition)

I would very much appreciate any input regarding additional reference documentation that you think should be included, either foreign or domestic.

Any suggestions should be addressed to;
