Monorail Design

The document is an Excel spreadsheet for designing a monorail used in offshore industries according to Eurocode standards. It includes sections for calculating section properties, loads, stresses, resistance checks, and designs for hangers and bolts. Load calculations are performed for different loading conditions, and checks are conducted for stresses, shear forces, deflections, and buckling resistance. Design of hangers includes determining section properties, design loads, bending moments, and section resistance. Bolt design includes classifications, dimensions, loads, and checks for shear, tension, and bearing resistances.
