1. INTRODUCTION
The presented document covers the analysis and design of proposed lifting arrangement for the
trestle on class 230 barge for transferring the load on to the lifting beam on SPMT. The barge will not
be subjected to any motion forces as it will be properly moored at Rohini yard and at Dahej, it will be
in beaching condition.
2. REFERENCES

5. LOAD CONSIDERATION
5.1 Dead Load(DL):
Dead load considered as the self-weight of Megaload system.
5.2 Lifted load (LL)

The lifted load is considered as per the inputs given by the Afcons (client). For analysis and design purpose
the maximum load is considered.

5.3 Wind Load Calculations on Column,
Dia of column = 457 mm
Height of column = 8650 mm
Gross area = ( 0.825 + 0.457) x 8.650
= 11.089 m2
Net area = 2x0.457x8.650

5.4 Notional Load

5% of total lifted load is considered as notional load.
Total NL = 5/100 * 425 = 21.25 Ton.
The notional load is divided on the lifting points, 4 lifting points are there.
NL = 21.25/4 = 5.33 Ton
