Description:
Conveyor Profile
Overall length = 235 m - Overall height = 0,5 m - True Length = 235,3 m
For this conveyor, there are six Design Level 1 loads, which are:
1. Empty
2. Fully Loaded
3. Operating Tonnage
4. PLUGGED CHUTE
5. Inclines Only
6. Declines Only
In the load case figures, the red line is the conveyor profile and the blue line indicates positions that are loaded.
Empty
*Counterweight displacements assume a winch is installed to adjust the counterweight position. As such the splice
length requirement and most of the permanent elongation can be removed from the total displacement (assuming the
counterweight location is repositioned periodically).
Pulley Details
The following table lists recommended pulley design tensions. The first column lists belt tensions for bearing L10
life and pulley fatigue stress calculations. Belt tensions for the fatigue design criterion are based on all design
level 1 cases. Running tensions have an added multiplier of 1,10 on high tension pulleys, and a multiplier of 1,25
on all other pulleys.
Pulleys are also to be design for the structural design tensions. For structural design tensions, the pulley
manufacturer is to ensure that the pulleys will be adequate to meet these worst case conditions.

The belt flap ratio is defined as the rotational frequency of the idler divided by the natural frequency of the belt. If this ratio
is equal to an integer (i.e. 1, 2, 3) then the idler may induce transverse vibrations at the natural frequency mode and result in
resonance.
The chart below shows the flap ratio along the length of the conveyor. The solid green line shows flap mode of the empty
belt under the normal friction case. The shaded pink areas should be avoided.

Belt flap resonance occurs at flap ratios 1, 2, 3, and 4

Structural Loads
The live load structural design tensions should be based on the maximum dynamic tensions plus 10% (to account for
misalignment and abnormalities in the belt, pulleys, and structures). Additionally they must include any other external loads
(wind & snow loads, seismic, etc.) that the system will encounter. These forces must then be multiplied by the required live
load structural design safety factor requirements (typically 1.6) to meet the specific structural design codes for the project.
The dead load structural design loads must be calculated from the masses of the pulleys, drives, reducers, and other
components. These loads are not included in this report as they will depend on the specific manufacture selection and other
details. These forces must then be multiplied by the required dead load structural design safety factor requirements (typically
1.2) to meet the specific structural design codes for the project. The live and dead loads are then added together to obtain the
total structural design forces.
The table below includes the belt tensions from all current load cases. Additionally, steady state and dynamic tensions for the
high friction case with 2.582 t/h have also been included. This specific load case results in 97% nameplate motor power,
excluding any reducer losses. The starting torque has been set to 150% for this case. The maximum tension values have been
multiplied by 110% and the pulley shaft calculations shown in the table reflect these values. The minimum tensions have
been reduced by 10%. The resultant force values include the vertical weight of the pulley.

The idler stringer loading should be based on the flooded belt surge capacity of 2.254 t/h and 358,2 kg/m plus the idler and
frame masses. Additionally, all other loads (hood covers, wind loads, etc.) must also be taken into consideration.
