Monorail has been classified as straddled type and suspended type. However, Inchon Wolmi Eunha rail, a center guide type first ever introduced in the world, uses a new concept Y-Beam as guide rail. Since Y-Beam takes horizontal loads of monorail through guide wheels, it is an essential structure for the safe operation along with concrete surface and steel beam which take vertical loads through main tires. This study presents the characteristic and reliability of Y-Beam and Y-Beam fixture, clamp, which are not only taking horizontal loads but also guarantying both guiding and stability of monorail and holding power supply line.

지하전철은 고비용 구축에 의한 대량 수송의 실적에도 불구하고 현실적으로 고액의 적자행정에서 벗어나지 못하고 있다. 선진국에서는 비용과 효율성을 위하여 지하전철선호에서 지상 모노레일로 급격한 변화를 가져오고 있다. 특히 경량화에 의한 첨단기술력에서 생산되는 고급 모노레일 카의 쾌적성, 친환경적, 경제성, 저소음, 저오염, 국지적 효율성 등에 의한 유비쿼터스 사회에 기여될 수 있는 최적의 조건을 가지고 있으므로 향후 지자체 위주의 행정에 의한 재정자립도의 확보를 위한 관광지의 개발에 관련된 천연성 지형지물, 인문성 문화제, 조경성 예술분야 등에 효자 상품으로 등극할 것이다. 이에 따라 정책적인 조정에 필요한 법제도 및 지방 조례 등의 조정으로 특색 있고 미래지향적인 모노레일 카의 정책방안의 설정이 시급하다. 특히 지정학적으로 3면이 바다로 위호되어 있고 중국, 러시아, 일본 등의 열강 국들에 육교적인 지정학적인 최상의 관광 및 첨단 한류문화의 교류의 니치성 상품의 활성화로 상대적으로 작지만 큰 경제적인 효과를 가져 올 수 있는 신 수송환경에 적극적인 행정과 민의의 접점에 교두보적인 수송의 르네상스 개념이 필요하다.

Monorail System has many advantages compared with other Urban Lightweight Transit Systems, such as the friendliness of the vehicle's appearance, slenderness of the bridge structures, it's low construction cost and short construction period. So, lots of city governments have reviewed or proposed the Monorail System as the attractive alternative system. And recently, Daegu Metropolitan City Government have chosen the Monorail System for the Urban Railroad Line 3. According to these trends on Urban Lightweight Transit Systems, this paper has introduced the outline of the planning and design of Monorail Bridges. At first, trends of overseas Monorail Bridges have been reviewed and the principal design criteria adopted in the basic design of the Urban Railroad Line 3 for Daegu have been introduced. And next, the methods of planning, design, fabrication of the guideway beams which are made of PSC Beam or Steel Beam have been explained. We hope this paper be helpful for the Engineers who are interested in the Monorail Bridges.

Recently, CO2 reduction policies are being promoted as parts of ESSD(Environmentally Sound and Sustainable Development), and many local governments are interested in monorails as a new means of transport. Here we report on a feasibility study for introducing a monorail system by considering the travel demands in the Mt. Bomun area in Daejeon, based on the area's population. The feasibility of a monorail system on Mt.Bomun varies with respect to the demographic scale, mode shares, and operational distances. The strategies introduced here will help identify any tourist spots where local governments are trying to introduce monorail systems as a new system of transit.

Monorail is a type of LRT that a train, made with $2{\sim}4$ cars runs on single track. Monorail can be divided into two types - straddled type, running on track beam and suspended type, running suspended from track beam. After Wuppertal, world's first monorail in German, many monorails are currently operated in Australia, U.S.A, Japan etc. In macountry, it was decided to introduce monorail to 3rd line of Daegue. Daegue's 3rd line is public financial project and supported about 60% of total project cost by central government. The central government announced a standard for rubber-wheel type LRT and steel-wheel type LRT. It becomes a guide to local government willing to introduce this type of LRT. The standard for monorail hasn't announced yet although the necessity of research has grown. Korea Railroad Research Institute which has been asked to research by Ministry of Land Transport and Maritime Affairs has carried out research on standard of monorail considering domestic condition. The on-going research is described in this paper. We wish that it becomes national standard and a good guide for local government.

The bogie structure of center guided type monorail has been applied to Incheon Wolmi Eunha monorail at first in the world, and aluminum alloy material bogie is first ever introduced in Korea. Since bogie transfers vertical and horizontal loads to the track and guide rail as an essential system, its structure should have enough durability and secure excellent operation performance and ride quality. This study presents a suitable structure for center guided type monorail, a system combination method for bogie operation performance and riding quality, and a solution for better bogie frame durability.
