Bridge Crane

Been a crane operator for 40 yrs. A 60 foot span on an I-beam would be a little shaky I think. You may want to look into a cab or pendant controlled bridge crane. What capacity crane are you looking for?

nooo the span would only be like 20 feet the rails it would run on back and forth would be 60 feet.

Sorry, misunderstood. I will contact the engineering department and see about the pictures. It may take a little time I retired 2 years ago, but, I'm sure I can still do this. I'm thinking they will want to know about the capacity.
