Heavy-duty racking is a simple type of racking consisting of columns and beams. According to different loading and delivery methods, it can be divided into pallet racks and drive racks. Among them, pallet racks have won the trust and love of many customers for their economy and use advantages, and have become one of the popular choices for warehouse racks. Usually pallet racks are also called beam racks.

For example: Pallet size: 1200mm*1000mm, where 1200 is the direction of the fork

 

Cargo loading capacity: 1t pallet (two pallets per layer)

 

Cargo height: 1100mm (including pallet height, three-layer beam and four-layer cargo need to be planned first)

 

(1) According to the above information, the salesperson will first calculate the length of the beam required by the shelf according to the size of the pallet, the length of the two pallets plus the gap between the pallet and the pallet and between the pallet and the shelf column, our standard is usually 100, That is, 1200*2+300=2700, the calculated 2700 is the shelf size calculated based on the calculated beam size

 

(2), the salesperson calculates the materials required for the shelf according to the beam length, that is, 120

 

(3) The height of the goods is 1100, and a safety distance of 100 is reserved between beams and goods on each floor, that is, 1200*3, and 500 is reserved for the top floor. Based on this, the shelf height can be calculated as 1200*3+120 (beam height)*3+500=4460. Since the columns of heavy-duty shelves usually have a spacing of 75 holes, the height of the columns is 4500h (4) and the depth direction of the pallet is 1000. In the design, we usually reduce it by 100 to facilitate the normal placement of goods on the shelves

 

Exceeded, it can be calculated that the shelf size of the heavy-duty pallet is 2700ce*900D*4500h
