What is the Australian Standard for Steel Storage Racking?
“This Standard sets out minimum requirements for the design (in permissible stress method), fabrication and erection tolerances, test methods, operation and maintenance. “This Standard applies to adjustable static pallet racking made of cold-formed or hot-rolled steel structural members. It covers both the situation where racking is installed within a building and where the racking forms part of the building frame. “The standard does not cover drive-in and drive-through racking, cantilever racking, mobile racking or racking made of materials other than steel.” Council of Standards Australia 1993, Steel Storage Racking – 1.
