What is a Monorail?
Monorail systems consist of an under slung single rail track installed to support hand propelled or electric motor driven carriers. These carriers in turn lift and lower the desired load and transport it from one point to another along a fixed travel path. As a result, monorails tick all the boxes to be classified as a crane and therefore classified plant. However, monorails are deemed non – registrable classified plant.
