General Information
Overview
EN 13001-3-3:2014 - Cranes: General design - Part 3-3: Limit states and proof of competence of wheel/rail contacts is a CEN European Standard that specifies design principles and verification methods to prevent mechanical hazards arising from metallic wheel/rail contacts in cranes. It is intended to be used together with EN 13001-1 and EN 13001-2 and applies to steel and cast‑iron wheels and metallic rails (roller bearings are excluded). The standard is for design verification only (limit‑state method per EN 13001‑1) and supports conformity with essential safety requirements of the EU machinery framework.
Key Topics
- Scope and applicability: metallic wheel/rail contacts for crane travel wheels, trolley wheels, guide rollers and slewing support wheels; applicable to cranes produced after approval.
- Limit states approach: limit state verification for both static strength and fatigue strength (rolling contact fatigue, RCF).
- Contact mechanics: use of Hertz contact pressure and subsurface shear stress to assess strength and fatigue.
- Line vs point contact: classification of contact geometry (line contact, point contact) and corresponding verification rules; recognition that point contacts in practice often evolve into line contacts.
- Material and hardness considerations: requirements for wheel and rail material properties (steel, cast iron) and hardness profiling below the contact surface; Brinell hardness (HBW) and unit‑conform hardness are used in calculations.
- Design forces and factors: definition of design contact forces, limit design forces for static and fatigue checks, and additional influence factors (edge pressure, non‑uniform pressure distribution, skewing, driven wheels).
- Counting contacts and life assessment: treatment of contact force histories, number of rolling contacts, and spectrum factors for fatigue life evaluation.
- Informative annexes: guidance on typical material strength properties, hardness conversion, wear behaviour examples, and relationship to other crane standards.
Applications
- Design and verification of crane wheelsets, rails and rolling contacts during conceptual and detailed design.
- Selection of wheel and rail material combinations and surface treatments to meet fatigue and static criteria.
- Establishing inspection criteria and design life estimates for crane travelways, trolley runs and slewing supports.
- Input for product standards for specific crane types and for procurement specifications that link purchaser and designer requirements.
Who should use this standard
- Crane designers and structural/mechanical engineers
- Component manufacturers (wheels, rails)
- Safety assessors and conformity bodies
- Project purchasers and asset owners specifying crane design life and maintenance regimes
