Rack Clad Silo

Clad-rack warehouse is an integral structure of warehouse and rack. Its conventional design consists of internal racks,wall cladding and roof that is constructed on top of the racks.The racks serve as the main support structure of the entire warehouse. In more detail,it mainly comprises a structural system consisting of rack,wind-resistant structures,roof trusses,and enclosure structures. Furthermore,the facilities for drainage,fire prevention,maintenance,and wind-powered refrigeration,which are external to the structural system,are also included.

The advantages of theRACK-CLAD are reflected:

1.In terms of cost,it's not always the case that the higher the cost is better.Generally, the larger the project scale,the more obvious the advantage of rack-clad becomes.

2.The outdoor construction of the rack-clad is not constrained by construction equipment,allowing for modular lifting operations with ultra-high cranes. Furthermore,the peripheral structure and the racks are constructed simultaneously. Once the racks are installed,the entire warehouse is almost completed.This significantly enhances the project timeline.

3.In terms of space utilization,from the utilization of space in the warehouse area,the rack-clad has a greater advantage,the internal space is basically completely utilized.conversely, in traditional storage facilities,there are numerous structural steel columns within the area,and the distance between the racks and the warehouse’s lateral and vertical boundaries is considerable,inevitably limiting the space utilization,which can be an advantage for special industries,such as cold chain logistics,where space energy efficiency is crucial.
