CRANE GIRDER
Crane girder: The principal horizontal beams of the crane bridge which supports the trolley and is supported by the end trucks. Crane Span: the horizontal distance center to center of the runway beams.
COMPOSITE COLUMN
Composite columns are a combination of two traditional structural forms: structural steel and structural concrete. As composite columns were generally developed after steel columns and reinforced concrete columns, their design approach could have been based on either steel or concrete design methods.
COMPOSITE BEAM
Composite beams are constructed from more than one material to increase stiffness or strength (or to reduce cost). Common composite-type beams include I-beams where the web is plywood and the flanges are solid wood members (sometimes referred to as “engineered I-beams”).
Tension Member
Tension members are structural elements that are subjected to axial tensile forces. Examples of tension members are bracing for buildings and bridges,
Compression Member
A member which carries an axial compression is known as a compression member. It is also called a strut. … Such a compression member is known as a short column. For large values of KL/r, a compression member undergoes buckling i.e., side way deflection (Figure 4.1(b)).

LOADS ON FRAME
Loads on the chassis frame are weight of the vehicle and the passengers, which causes vertical bending of the side members. Vertical loads when the vehicle comes across a bump or hollow, which results in longitudinal torsion due to one wheel lifted with other wheels at the usual road level. Loads are dynamic in nature.
SHEAR CONNECTION
A shear connection is a joint that allows the transfer of shear forces between two members. It is a connection with pure normal force load (tension joint), pure shear loading, or combination of normal and shear force. Shear connections are generally the most commonly used connections
NON PRETENSIONED BOLTS
Pretensioned A pretensioned joint is a joint that transmits shear and/ or tensile loads in which the bolts have been installed to provide a pretension in the installed bolt. Bolts can be pretensioned using turn-of-nut, calibrated wrench, twist- off-type tension-control bolt or direct-tension-indicating washer methods.
