CAUTION: Your Pallet Racking system can have an invisible tipping point! Your safety and security depend largely on the condition of your “foundation row section.” This is the lowest portion of your frame which carries the largest amount of your pallet rack weight. This area is subject to tremendous tension and compression forces in an array of directions. Unfortunately, the majority of rack damage occurs here. Accumulated damage in this zone quickly transforms your racking system from having a firm foundation into a ticking time bomb. Pallet racking systems are engineered specifically for your individual criteria. Each dent, every damaged anchor, all broken or missing struts, as well as any beam damage, synergistically degrades your racking system from its original engineering specification. What seems like minor dents and dings combine to bring the system closer and closer to a catastrophic failure caused by one final triggering event. One more collision, improper loading, dropped inventory or seismic activity can be all that is needed to begin a rack collapse.
