STRUCTURAL DESIGN CALCULATION

STRUCTURAL DESIGN CALCULATION SHEET Date:02-11-2017
[A] General data:

1- To accelerate the progress at the site, we are here
Propose to install Under carriage tower crane:
TC1: under carriage, Hummer 55 ML, Top less, tower crane

RED FALCON (RF140-10), free standing HUH = 28ML
(see the crane location and section on plan drawing attached)
5- The under-carriage tower cranes REDFALCON RF140-10, usually

need a minimum raft foundation size of 5.60 x 5.60 to accommodate
the under-carriage accessories.
4- The crane raft foundation will design to be supported to the

compacted natural soil plus 200mm compacted road base layer at level
-2.4ML from the asphalt road level. (see the sections in drawings attached)
5- AS per the soil report QAP-06-C-D6-REV06 done by Mr./s MTS
Where it is stated that the bearing capacity below the raft foundation is
300 KN/sq.M at the level of 3.5 M below the road level.
we will use a bearing capacity of 150 KN/sq.M at the level -2.4M
and the Ks will be considered =15000 KN/cub.M
6- The raft foundation analysis and design are done using SAFE ver.
12 software. (See the attached results print out and the file soft copy attached here with)
[B] Geometrical data:

- see the attached copies of drawings shown the plan, elevation and sections of the crane
foundation.
[C] Structural Consideration of design:
1) The used code for concrete design is ACI 318-08.

2) The used program to analysis and design is SAFE ver.12
・ Properties of materials:
1) Concrete density = 24 KN/m3.
2) Concrete cube strength: fc = 45 N/mm2.
3) Reinforcement Steel yield strength: FY = 460 N/mm2
[D] Loads consideration:

D1: TC1 REDFALCON RF140-10 Nominal Loads:
-Tower crane is RF140-10.
- Under carriage tower crane.
- Hummer Boom length 55m.
- Number of tower section above the base section is 11 sections (hook

height = 28 ML).
-From the REDFALCON catalogue we can see the worst case of legs
loading. (Copy of the same enclosed)
- The four legs of the tower crane under carriage will be connected to
a steel beams and then the beams will transfer the loads throughout a
bearing plate 320x320x20mm.
Loads will be considered as the following:

- Self weight of the raft foundation itself, generated by the program.
- Loads of the crane legs (from the tower crane data sheets).
D3. Loads factors:

- The crane loads will be factored by 1.2 to account for the dynamic
and impact effects Based on BS 2573 Part I Art 3.1.4 Table 4 art e
Tower Crane under Normal Duty.
So, the crane loads used for the analysis in SAFE files are the crane
loads in D1 factored by 1.2
And the crane load considered being live load when checking.
D4. Load Cases:

Service Static load cases: (for safe input)
FOSW (dead): footing self weight: generated by the program
Crane in operation:
Load case 1:
RF. moment at direction 1 (315, 45,135,225 degree) x 1.20
Load case 2:
RF. moment at direction 2 (0, 180 degree) x 1.20
Load case 3:
Crane out of operation:

Load case 4:
RF. moment at direction 1 (315, 45,135,225 degree) x 1.20
Load case 5:
Load case 6:
RF. moment at direction 3 (90 , 270 degree) x 1.20
Service Load combinations: (for soil pressure checking)
Comb 1 = FOSW + Load case 1
Ultimate Load combinations: (for footing design)
ULTcom1= 1.4x FOSW + 1.6x Load case 1

[E] Foundation analysis and design:

SAFE soft ware program has been used to make analysis and design for the
footing above (Soft copy of the SAFE file is attached here with)
- Raft slab foundation proposed to be 5.6.0M x5.6.0 Mx 0.4 ML thk.
- After analyzing the model shown in the safe file (soft copy of the same is attached with the
submittal)
Max. Soil pressure = 136 KN/M2 >150 KN/M2 (comb 1) OK
AS shown in the safe reinforcement results, using steel T20/120 mm top

mesh and T16/120 mm bottom mesh will satisfy all Ultimate loading cases.
