I have had to do two trolley cranes/hoists at water treatment plants. They were both 'smaller' in size. I think they were both less than 2 ton hoists.

Here are two documents I found that helped with the design:

1) ANSI Specification For Patented Track Underhung Cranes & Monorail MH21.1-2009
2) ASME B30.11-2010 Monorails & Underhung Cranes

I think both documents can be found on internet for free with a little searching.

The ASME document has good background info, but The ANSI document was a little more useful because it actually specifies some loading rules.

Calculation of an impact load
Skewing of load
Allowable stress in compression flange
Allowable tension stress in flange
