A reliability optimization design method for the main girder structure of gantry cranes based on the improved whale optimization algorithm (WOA) was proposed. The convergence speed and accuracy of the WOA were improved by introducing Sine chaotic mapping, a nonlinear convergence factor, and an adaptive inertia weight. In addition, the random probability p was improved to enhance the global search capability and prevent premature convergence to local optima. A reliability optimization mathematical model for the gantry crane girder structure was established with stiffness, strength, stability, geometric size and designed reliability index as constraints. The improved WOA, the Monte Carlo simulation reliability method and the structural system fuzzy random reliability method were then applied to the lightweight design of the main girder. The results showed that, under the premise of satisfying the set constraints, the volume of the main girder was reduced by 12.6% using the Monte Carlo reliability method and by 12.33% using the structural system fuzzy random reliability method, demonstrating a significant lightweight effect.
