1. All loads listed at the allowable static loads based on the requirements on ANSI E1.6-1 Powered Hoist Systems section 6.6.
2. Characteristic load assumed to be 125% of the static load.
3. Batten strength is limited so that the load imposed by the characteristic load does not exceed 75% of the allowable strength per AISC 360-05 (Specification for Steel Buildings - Allowable Stress Design).
4. Batten deflection is limited so that the calculated deflection due to the characteristic load not exceed L/180.
5. Battens assumed to be continuous over three spans.
6. Battens extend beyond last lift line by 3 feet or less.
7. ANSI E1.4 (Manual Counterweight Rigging Systems) requires battens to support 30 lbf/ft or 100 lb point load while limiting deflection to L/180. Spans highlighted in green meet this criteria.
