Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part

1.Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents". Drafting. This document replaces GB/T 27997-2011 "Shipbuilding Gantry Cranes". Compared with GB/T 27997-2011, except for structural adjustments and rewriting... Aside from the logical changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

---The job level range has been changed, and a job level table has been added (see 4.2.1,.2011 version 4.2.1);

---The rated lifting capacity of the entire machine and the upper and lower trolleys has been increased, and a table of rated lifting capacity for double upper trolleys has been added (see 4.2.2);

---The power supply voltage level has been changed (see 5.1.1,.2011 version 5.1.1);

---The main beam deviation requirements and main beam gauge measurement standards have been revised (see 5.4.1.2,

5.7.1.2 in the.2011 version);

---The requirement for flexible hinges has been added (see 5.5.11);

---The description of the crane safety supervision standard has been revised (see 5.7,
