MONORAIL TEXCHNOLOGY Vishal S. Shirole1 Wahid Darban2 1&2 Of B.E. Mech, Emil:-vishal55shirole@gmail.com Abstract A monorail is a rail-based transportation system based on a single rail, which acts as its sole support and its guideway. The term is also used variously to describe the beam of the system, or the vehicles traveling on such a beam or track. The primary advantage of monorails over conventional rail systems is that they require minimal space, both horizontally and vertically. Monorail vehicles are wider than the beam, and monorail systems are commonly elevated, requiring only a minimal footprint for support pillars. A monorail track is usually less expensive to build than a comparable elevated conventional rail line of equal capacity. Due to a smaller footprint they are seen as more attractive than conventional elevated rail lines and block only a minimal amount of sky. Monorail is, by design, a grade-separated system. They do not interfere with existing transport modes. They are quieter, as modern monorails use rubber wheels on a concrete track. Modern monorails depend on a large solid beam as the vehicles' running surface. There are a number of competing designs divided into two broad classes, straddle-beam and suspended monorails. Monorail Technology:- vertically. Monorail vehicles are wider than Mono' is the Greek the beam, and monorail systems are numeral prefix for one.
