Abstract:
The distribution of load has high uncertainty, which is the main cause of a rack structure’s instabilities. The objective of this study was to identify the most unfavorable and favorable load distributions on steel storage racks with and without bracings under seismic loading through a stochastic optimization—a genetic algorithm (GA). This paper begins with optimizing the most unfavorable and favorable load distributions on the steel storage racks with and without bracings using GA. Based on the optimization results, the failure position and seismic performance influencing factors, such as the

Abstract:
The static and free vibration tests were carried out to investigate the initial lateral stiffness and dynamic properties of steel drive-in storage racks. The bracing configuration and friction between pallets and rail beams were taken into consideration. The static test results indicate that the tested storage racks show sideways and torsional deformation modes under the single-point horizontal force. Both top plan bracings and back spine bracings can change the load transfer through the rack framework, strengthen the initial lateral stiffness of racks, but only back spine bracings can affect

Abstract:
A rack clad building (RCB) is a type of warehouse building system built using steel storage racks as the seismic force resisting system. Generally, these rack systems are larger and taller compared to the conventional steel storage racks commonly used in warehouses. These buildings have peripheral racks that can support the claddings. These rack systems possess some unique properties, such as the members built using thin-walled perforated steel sections and the beam-to-column connection utilizing a teardrop connector in the down-aisle direction.

This paper presents the results of uniaxial and triaxial shake table tests performed on directly anchored and base isolated steel pallet storage racks loaded with simulated and real merchandise. The new base isolation system provides seismic isolation in the cross-aisle direction of a rack only, while providing similar restraints as conventional bolted base plates in the down-aisle direction. The objective of the isolation in the cross-aisle direction is to reduce the horizontal accelerations of the rack in order to reduce content spillage and structural damage during a major seismic event, wi

Abstract:
Steel storage racks are widely used in logistics for storing materials and goods. Rack design is carried out by adopting the so-called design-assisted-by-testing procedure. In particular, experimental analyses must be carried out by rack producers on the key structural components in order to adopt the design approach proposed for the more traditional carpentry frames. For existing racks, i.e., those in-service for decades, it is required to evaluate the load carrying capacity in accordance with the design provisions currently in use.

Many storage racks fail during earthquakes. Investigations of previous earthquake incidents reported that failures in storage racks were either because of inadequate structural design or because racks were struck by heavy pallet loads falling from the racks as pallets moved and dislodged during the earthquake. This has highlighted the need for robust earthquake design guidelines for steel storage racks. Therefore, the main objective of this thesis project was to study the seismic behaviour of drive-in racks, and particularly to derive the ductility factor for the rack in the cross-aisle direct

Abstract:
Steel storage racks are commonly used worldwide to store goods on pallets and represent freestanding structures to design. Recently, a new type of storage systems has gained popularity in which the rack system supports both the building enclosure and the stored goods. These new rack structures are referred to as “rack-supported buildings” or “clad racks”. Due to combined actions of wind loading and stored pallets, uprights undergo a combination of biaxial bending and compression. Existing design rules may not be adequate for this type of combined loading. Furthermore in clad racks, as the oute

The objective of the research is to investigate the hysteretic behaviour of beam-to-upright connections commonly used in cold-formed steel storage racks, and their role in predicting the structural response of steel storage racks under seismic action. The mechanical beam-to-upright connections are commonly utilised for their convenience in assembly and adjustment. Steel storage racks are slender structures which are sensitive to the second-order effect. The static and dynamic performance of rack structures are thus significantly influenced by the behaviour of connections. Due to the complex na
