Patel, V.K.Patel Research scholar, Assistant Professor Abstract:- The aim of this paper is for review on structural analysis of overhead crane girder using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) technique. Overhead crane girder is subjected to various types of load. Girder is the critical assembly component of overhead crane. Currently research is being carried out to improve the strength structure of overhead crane girder. These efforts help to overcome overhead crane girder failure. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software offers inexpensive solutions to overhead crane girder failure problem. In this study the researchers used Finite Element Analysis (FEA) technique using different types of approach. Index Term : - Girder, Overhead, Structural analysis, Finite Element Analysis (FEA). I. INTRODUCTION A crane is mechanical equipment for lifting and lowering a load and moving it horizontally, with the hoisting mechanism an integral part of the machine. A crane with a single or multiple girder movable bridge, carrying a movable trolley or fixed hoisting mechanism, and traveling on an overhead fixed runway structure is known as overhead crane. Material handling is a vital component of any manufacturing and distribution system and the material handling industry is consequently active, dynamic, and competitive. Material handling is an important practical consideration
