1.0 Introduction

The intent of this document is to analyse and design 2.5T capacity monorail support beam. All the supports are
assumed as 'pinned' in structural analysis.

BS-6399 - LOADINGS FOR BUILDINGS

1.2 Design Loads

Lifting Load = 2500 Kg

= 25 kN

Lifting Height = 7m

Weight Of trolley = 260 Kg = 2.6 kN

So, total load = 27.6 kN

Considering 25% impact load conservatively,

Total Load = 27.6 x 1.25 = 34.5 kN

Horizontal load = 10 % of the vertical load

= 3.45 kN (Both lateral & longitudinal direction)

1.3 Primary Load Cases:-

1.) Dead Load

Self weight of monorail beam

2.) Live Load 1

Condition where the hoist is exactly at the centre of the monorail beam

3.) Live Load 2

Condition where the hoist is near the support of the monorail beam

1.4 Load Combinations:-

Ultimate Load Combination:-

10) 1.4 Dead Load + 1.6 Live Load case 1
11) 1.4 Dead Load + 1.6 Live Load case 2

Service Load Combination:-

20) 1.0 Dead Load + 1.0 Live Load case 1
21) 1.0 Dead Load + 1.0 Live Load case 2
