    Introduction -- Literature review -- Finite element model development -- Crane runway beam analysis and discussion -- Conclusions and recommendations. Appendices A- Web sidesway buckling model log file - simply supported, no stiffeners, two loads B- Web sidesway buckling model log file - simply supported, stiffeners included, two loads.
    Crane runway beams are a common fixture in warehouses and industrial facilities. Most crane trolleys apply two concentrated loads onto the runway beam. Few studies have been conducted investigating the web sidesway buckling capacity of beams subjected to two or more concentrated loads. The purpose of this report is to investigate the effects beam section, load spacing, transverse stiffeners, beam end fixity, and restraint type and location have on the web sidesway buckling capacity of crane runway beams.
    Finite element models employing shell elements were created in ANSYS to observe the deflected shape of the modeled beams and to determine the critical web sidesway buckling capacity.
    It was found that varying load spacing, the addition of transverse stiffeners, and the application of rotational restraints have only a marginal effect on a beam's web sidesway buckling capacity. Fixed ended beams have a significantly higher capacity than simply supported beams. An increase in beam section size increases the web sidesway buckling capacity with the flange width having the most effect.
