90-ton Bridge Crane Canopy

Engineering Design project for a 90-ton Bridge Crane Canopy with a 60ft. bridge span.

Perform field engineering to review to verify dimensions and create a design layout with locations of existing building framing, access doorways, etc.
Determine structural design alternatives and present best solution to the client. (Due to the start / stop & side to side loads expected from a 90-ton crane, a truss type structure was selected.)
Perform a Structural Analysis on the concept structure to determine expected deflection & loading for each structural member.
Create a set of detailed foundation and structural drawings.
Create a set of detailed shop prints for fabrication of each structural element (59 sheets total).

Concept Design Layouts.
State of Texas PE Stamped structural drawings for the foundation and canopy structure.
