1- Determine storage needs such as the length, depth, height and weight of the product(s) to be loaded. 2- Arms- Choose arm style and length, and the capacity needed to support the load. Two arms create a level (one on each side). Divide the weight of the load per level by two for 1 bay to give the individual arm capacity.
3. Columns- Determine the number of arms needed per column side and vertical space required. Adding up all the individual arm capacities and vertical space requirement will determine the height and combined weight capacity needed for the two columns.
4- Brace. Determine brace set width. take into account the length of the pieces planned to be stored. Brace set widths will provide center-to-center measurements of the arms installed on columns. One brace set per bqay is required.
Example:
A-Product to be stored: bars bundled at 8’ long 30”deep x 10” high and weighing 3000lbs
B-Arm Choice: 32” long straight without lip. Load weight is 3000lbs. Divide weight by two (1 level ) go obtain 1500 lbs per arm requirement.
C- Column Choice: 3 levels of load arms required, then 6 arms are needed with vertical spacing of 16” apart. Six arms x 1500 lbs = 9000 lbs combined required column capacity is 4500lbs per column. at a ……………………………………….
A cantilever rack is configured per bay and consists of three general components:
1- Arms
2- Columns
3- Brace sets
