GB/T 41680-2022

This standard specifies the principles and requirements for the seismic design of cranes, including load calculations, structural verification, and safety criteria to ensure crane integrity during earthquakes. It is applied in the engineering and procurement of overhead traveling cranes, gantry cranes, and similar material handling equipment installed in seismically active regions, particularly for industrial facilities, ports, and nuclear power plants. The standard guides manufacturers and engineers in designing cranes that can withstand seismic events without catastrophic failure, protecting both equipment and personnel.
