How to calculate the load of warehouse storage racking system?

When customers consult the storage racking system, they often worry that the insufficient carrying capacity of the shelves will cause the shelves to be bent and deformed, and the safety performance is low, so the expected carrying capacity will be much higher.

We know that the heavier the load on the racking in the warehouse, the thicker the iron is, and the more materials are needed. If only 500kg goods are expected to be put on the racking with a load of 1t, it will be overqualified and waste a lot of materials and money (except for those that don’t care about money).

In fact, it’s normal to have this concern before we know how to calculate the weight that the storage rack factory can carry. So how does the storage rack factory calculate the weight of the storage rack?

We use the finite element analysis system to design and manufacture the racking. It is a modern calculation method based on the rapid development of structural mechanics analysis. It is widely used in common hydraulic engineering, civil engineering, bridge, machinery, motor, metallurgy, shipbuilding, aircraft and other fields in our life. Almost all the fields of scientific research and engineering technology are used in the storage racking. In terms of load calculation, it will be more accurate and the structure of racking will be more reasonable and stable.

Therefore, in the case of knowing the weight of the goods we need to store, we don’t need to pre raise the load of the warehouse racking too much. With this scientific finite element analysis system, the designed load can be achieved under normal conditions, which can save unnecessary costs.
