4 Rack alignment Fig. 1 SAFETY STANDARDS AND CALCULATION ASSUMPTIONS The correct use of a product, distinguishes both the Customer and the manufacturer. METALSISTEM recommends that Customers make use of their product in strict conformity with the design characteristics given and standards of best practice. The design and assembly of the racking systems must be carried out by qualified personnel. METALSISTEM is not responsible for any improper or inappropriate use of its product. a) Floor slab loading Prior to installation of the product, check that the floor slab is of adequate load bearing capacity. b) Site installation The site installation of racking systems must be carried out by expert personnel following the assembly criteria and specifications tabled in the technical catalogues. Site personnel must ensure that all frame bolts have been tightened and all safety elements have been installed. c) Rack alignment While assembling the rack installation, the verticality of the frames must be checked for both the X and Z directions. Unless more restrictive tolerances have been specified, the deviation off both the X and Z planes must not exceed ±10mm or 1/350 of the height (ie Max Deviation = H/350), whichever is greater.(figure 1). For more detailed information on verticality tolerances refer to Operating Instructions Assembly of Super Racks :ISQ01_04/C_011. d) Load bearing capacity plate Load bearing capacity plates must be fastened in a clearly visible position nominating the model type, year of assembly, load bearing capacity of the frames, load bearing capacity per pair of beams or per shelf (expressed as a uniformly distributed load), the load unit applied, the height of the first level from ground and the number of levels. (figure 2). Load bearing capacity plates 400 x code Load bearing capacity plates 300 x 240 code Fig. 2 e) Rack safety standard Rack frames must be fastened to the floor slab with at least two anchor bolts for every upright. In cases where the height of the frame is: - more than 5 times its depth, for single entry racking; - or, more than 10 times its depth, for double entry racking; that structure must be fastened via the installation of top ties. The racking structure must also be supplied complete with column and/or frame protectors. f) Reference Standards The theoretical calculation is based on the following reference standards - C.N.R /88 - C.N.R /84 Reference standards for the materials are: - EN Page 4

5 Plastic Lable with cardboard insert and P.V.C. cover ( 67018) Fig. 3 - EN EN g) Software references The theoretical calculations of finished elements were elaborated with the SICS program. Guide lines followed as the basis for the calculations are those of the organisation CISI (Costruttori Italiani Scaffalature Industriali). h) Frame load bearing capacity The Super4-5-6 load bearing capacity graph (Graph 1) shows the load bearing capacity of frames used for pallet racking installations. These are expressed as a function of the height, from ground, of the first pair of beams. The following underlying assumptions apply when interpreting the graph. The racking has: - a minimum of 4 consecutive bays of equal length; - a minimum of 3 beam levels; - a constant height between levels; - an equal and uniformly distributed load has been applied to all levels. - frames must be fastened to the floor slab with at least two anchor bolts for every upright. Given that the load bearing capacity of the rack may depend on other elements such as, the number of levels, the proportion between height and depth, installation in seismic areas etc., contact the METALSISTEM Technical Department for consultation should there be doubts about any aspects of the installation. i) Load bearing capacities of beam pairs The load bearing capacities of the beam pairs were calculated with the following assumptions: - loads are uniformly distributed; - admissible tensile stress of the material; - deflection 1/200. It is mandatory to place beam retaining security clips on either side of all beams. l) Bracing The bracing system is composed of cross brace elements placed on both vertical and horizontal planes and from the beams present in the bracing bay. In the condition when there are less than 3 loading levels per bay or less than 4 consecutive bays, bracing is applied to rack installations in order to stabilise the structure. At least 1 braced bay must be placed for every 8 consecutive bays. Bracing may also be used to limit errors in verticality on both the X and Y planes. m) Custom built applications The METALSISTEM Technical department is at the disposal of its customers for any specific calculations or custom built applications. METALSISTEM reserves the right to modify the technical characteristics of its products at any time as it sees fit. Technical data, dimensions and characteristics given in this document are indicative only. Page 5

6 FRAME LOAD BEARING CAPACITY GRAPH Graph Maximum Load Bearing Capacty per frame (Kg) The Super4,5,6 load bearing capacity graph shows the maximum bearing capacity per frame expressed as a function of the height of the first loading level from ground. The Super 456 Load Bearing Capacities represented in graph 1 have been calculated assuming both frame uprights are loaded equally. In those cases where the frame uprights are not equally loaded, the Load Bearing Capacity shall be given by the upright with the highest applied load multiplied by two.

19 BEAMS The beams are closed sections of varying thickness with moulded, riveted or welded connectors present at either extremity. A channel, present in the upper face of the beam provides a lip within which a variety of components such as shelf units, secondary beams, and other applications. The load bearing capacities shown on the tables refer to the loading produced by Europallets in a good and sufficiently ridged state of repair. The loads applied must be stable and suited to the intended application of the racking system. Disposable pallets or pallets of a low quality (not Europallets) can only be used in conjunction with secondary beams and/or shelves. Series /3 beams may only be used for the storage of pallets producing loads no greater than 1000 kg, series /4 beams may only be used for the storage of pallets producing loads no greater than 1200 kg, series /5 beams may only be used for pallets producing loads no greater than 1500 kg and series /6 beams may only be used for pallets producing loads no greater that 2000 kg.
