1.Full use of the surface area
the warehouse is designed at the same time as the racks and only occupies the space required, without intermediate pillars that influence their distribution.
2.Optimisation of height
as with the surface area, the height will be only that which is required. At the same time, the upper trusses or girders require less height and incline being directly supported on the racking.
3.Maximum height of the construction
You can build to any height, it only depends on local regulations or the scope of the handling means which are used, being able to exceed 45 m high (which would be complex and expensive in traditional construction).
4.Simpler construction
The entire structure is assembled on a concrete slab of suitable thickness to achieve uniform distribution of the forces on the foundation; there isn’t a high concentration of loads.
5.Less time for completion
Once the slab is built, the entire structure and cladding are progressively and concurrently installed.
6.Cost savings
As a general rule, the cost of a clad-rack warehouse is less than the more traditional racks. The greater the construction height, the more profitable the clad-rack system.
7.Minimal civil works
it only requires the construction of the slab on the ground and, in some cases, a waterproof wall between one and two metres high. In which case the operations area needs to be expanded for receipt and dispatch, a traditional
building can be built, but of sufficient height without reaching the total height of the warehouse.
8.Easily removable
Being a structure formed by standard rack elements that come pre-assembled or bolted, they can be dismounted with ease and a high percentage of components recovered.
