Local seismic load on the column of industrial building

When determining the standard seismic load on a single-stored industrial building, the calculation model may vary depending on the task and the structural and technological characteristics of the building. In most cases, a single-mass cantilever model is accepted, providing sufficient accuracy in determining the system's operation. This paper proposes a method for determining the local seismic load on the column of a one-stored industrial building from a top running overhead crane. The method takes into account the location of the crane relative to the column during an earthquake and, accordingly, the way this load is applied to the column.
