DESIGN OF MONORAIL AS PER IS800 2007 | LIMIT STATE METHOD OF DESIGN |
Designing a monorail beam as per IS 800:2007 (General Construction in Steel – Code of Practice) involves several steps to ensure that the structure is capable of supporting the loads applied during its operation. Monorails are commonly used in material handling systems and typically consist of a steel beam supporting a trolley or hoist for load movement.

Bending Strength:
The design bending strength (Md) is given by:
Md = βb ⋅ Zp ⋅ fy / γm
Where:
- βb: Bending strength modification factor (as per IS 800:2007 Table 8).
- Zp: Plastic section modulus (from steel tables).
- fy: Yield stress of steel.
- γm=1.1: Partial safety factor.
Ensure:
Md ≥ Mu
Shear Strength:
The design shear strength (Vd) is:
Vd = fy⋅Aw / sqrt(3) ⋅ γm
Where:
- Aw: Web area of the section.
Ensure:
Vd ≥ Vu
