Step 1
Size the Product * Measure the width and
depth of your pallet. * Note the weight of
your pallets and how many pallet you will be
putting on each shelf. Special Note : Click

Step
2
Selecting the beam and upright size: Beams *
Select the required length. This is the actual
open length ( called Span - see Step 1 photo)
needed to store the pallets on. Note this IS NOT
the overall end to end length of the beam
itself. * Determine the capacity needed. This
will be the max. weight of the heaviest pallet
you want to store times the number of pallet
that will be put on each shelf. ( example: 2000#
is heaviest pallet being stores X two pallets =
4000# capacity per shelf beam needed. Beam
height corresponds to capacity. Inherently, the
taller the beam more capacity it will hold. (
example: a 96" long x 5" high beam will
inherently will hold more weight and have a
higher holding capacity than a 96" long X 4"
beam of the same model and make of pallet rack.
Depending on how much overhang the product being
stored on the pallets has, you will want to
leave at least 2 inches or more room between
each pallet and between the pallet and the
upright frame to allow easy storage and
retrieval of pallets from your pallet racks. (
see step 2 photo). |

Step
3
Different
Rack Locations ( isle and/or wall storage
configurations) Upright Frames
* Select the required height as determined
by the top shelf level desired. * Select the
required frame width. This should be be the
same depth of the material being stored is
using pallet rack with wire decks or a
minimum of 6" shorter than the pallet depth
when wire decks are being used. * Determine
the capacity needed, column sizes are
related to capacity. A standard 3 x 1 5/8
column inherently hold between 15,000 to
18,000# of rack storage depending on
manufacturer. Call your rack supplier for
the capacity of the rack they represent for
exact capacities. 3x3" column upright frames
are rated for 24,000 to 30,000 lbs. capacity
and are used for storing heavier loads.

Step
4
Add it up Determine the number of beams and
uprights you will need based on the sizing and
the spacing from steps one and two. View the
illustration on step 3 for and example of
different configurations based on locations
against walls, isles etc.
