Gives only attention points and who (e.g. Client, General Contractor, Planner, Architect) is responsible for what, however NO concrete relevant Interface Issues
4. The Steel Structure (Racking) becomes more and more the Construction Work of a Storage Machine a. Dynamic Quasi-static (via Dynamic Factor) b. Specification of the Spectrum with Load Cycles
Examples:
Crane Aisle

5. Building Sites
more and more with lesser load bearing properties Not always complying with the requirement Quasi-stiff concrete slab in accordance with FEM 9.831-1 / 9.832 Interactive design : Concrete Slab Racking
3. Storage & Retrieval Machine in the general sense Stacker crane (S/R Machine) - on a concrete slab , rail dependent - supported by racking , rail dependent Shuttle - pallet storage - small parts storage Traverse car And such

C. DUTIES OF THE
STORAGE SYSTEM DESIGNER
1. Definition
(Storage) System Designer = Planer (FEM 9.223)
11
Is the one who calls himself System Designer really the Storage System Designer ???
This person or functionality has to create the end-conditions to allow the signing of a CE Declaration of Conformity

c. Period of Loading
Concrete has better properties under Short Term Loading
LONG TERM LOADING (1) Direct effect weights Unit Loads (1st Order) SHORT TERM LOADING (2) Slender upright frames

d. Concrete slab NOT Quasi Stiff Iterative design procedure with interactive behaviour :
Rack Design Slab Design

e. Anchoring Compression or Tension Zones ? - Designer of concrete slab shall specify - Slab supported by piles Always Tension Zones
- Pulling out strength Same anchor type : in Tension Zone << in Compression Zone
European Racking Federation ERF / FEM Racking & Shelving
24
- Only anchors which are certified according the European Construction Directive are allowed : * CE * ETAG
- No certified anchor type exists for steel fibre concrete
(ETAG only specifies normal mortar ; Steel fibre additive results in a special mortar)
- Always to be checked in advance with the checking Professional Engineer or Building Official

c. Consequences
1. A fatigue check might be reguired in certain situations Partial Safety Factor for Fatique (EN 1993-1-9) a. Damage Tolerant situation, e.g. :.
- in case cracks unexpectedly do occur , a low rate of propagation and long critical crack length - provision of readily inspectable detail for regular inspections
(Reference Locations for Inspections)
b. Safe approach : fatigue life will be reached with the required safety level
Choice Mf in relation with specification load spectrum
(conservative or realistic spectrum)
1,35
EN 1993-1-9
European Racking Federation ERF / FEM Racking & Shelving
28
Load spectrum with number of load cycles over the design life
(in accordance with the designed operation)
or simplified & on the safe side : Constant (*) Load Amplitude with Number of Load Cycles to match
(*) Attention : is NOT the average value
FEM 9.841

Safety factor for fatique to consider : Mf = 1,0 / 1,15 / 1,35 ? Aplication points of the forces

d. Retro Fit
One shall consider also:

Finite Shell Element Analysis - Wheel at mid span - Wheel at rail end
+
Flange Bending
33
(1) Wheel position at the instant of leaving the S/R Machine (2) > appr. 80 mm (3) At all time > appr. 2 mm
34
(1) Wheel position when just supported by S/R Machine (2) > appr. 80 mm (3) At all time > appr. 2 mm
Assumption (to be confimed by a FEM analysis): due to increasing rail flange deformation under F1 when approaching the rail end , F1 will decrease while F2 will increase

b. Data to be specified for the Seismic Design of the Rack Structure , e.g.
1. Rack filling grade reduction factor (down aisle) 2. Soil characteristics 3. Character of stored goods
(compact, flexible, liguids)
4. Reduced design weight Unit Loads, at an Earthquake ?? 5. Type of LMA (e.g. wood, dry or wet ; plastic ; steel) 6. Seismic design life, Normal : 50 Jahre, Reduced : 30 Jahre 7. Interfaces with Warehouse Building, e.g. :
- Additional Upright- and Anchoring forces - Seismic Sway deformation Warehouse Building

The racking supplier shall be advised of the kinetic energy and additional forces to be able to calculate the resulting forces.
However the S/R Machine absorbs a relative big part of the Kinetic Energy
