In the case of an overhead crane, the rail is laid on and fixed to the beam called a crane runway girder. (CRG) built on either side of the building (Photo 1).
The stresses in the crane runway girder can be measured by using strain gauges attached to it at predetermined locations. The following procedure may be

The crane runway beam is an essential component of an overhead crane, which means that it must be manufactured and installed with the greatest precision.
