Construction - 3D Design of Crane Gantry


Scope

Our client tasked D3 to provide a suitable design of a crane gantry/frame structure to accomodate an existing overhead crane/hoist.

The framework was to be installed in a large workshop and fixed to a concrete substructure. The 3D design and drawings were done within PTC Creo.
