• High Density Pallet Rack

High Density Pallet Rack Systems

High Density Pallet Rack systems maximize storage space and minimize storage costs.

When storage space is at a premium or extremely costly to operate, high density pallet storage rack systems can increase usable space by up to 75 percent. Distribution operations that require high volume order fulfillment or freezer and cooler applications are some examples of when a high density pallet storage rack system would be required.

• The capacities shown in this table are for static load conditions only.
• The Frame Capacity Chart gives static load capacities based on the specified "Unsupported Length" of the columns (Vertical Beam Spacing).

WARNING: Due to the system-based design approach of the current RMI Specification, the use of static load capacities are no longer appropriate. Load ratings can only be provided through a system analysis which accounts for configuration of the system, static loading, seismic parameters, stability requirements and the interaction characteristics of the various system components. These capacity tables should only be used as a "starting point".

• Capacities marked with * indicate that the column connection capacity may be limited based on the hook option and/or frame model (see table below).
• Capacities listed are for non-seismic conditions. For seismic conditions consult with Ridg-U-Rak sales or engineering.
• Capacities are based on uniformly distributed loads per pair of beams.
• Capacities listed are for a 2-pallet wide condition.
• All beams over 114" in length should utilize at least one flanged, tek-screwed or lock-in cross bar located at mid length.
