Material handling solutions for the construction industry

Racking and material handling solutions for the construction industry are built to handle the storage of heavy, irregularly shaped materials such as lumber, steel beams, and construction equipment. These systems are designed for strength and flexibility, providing robust shelving, cantilever racks, and pallet racking that can withstand the demands of construction materials. Our solutions enhance site organization, allowing for safe, efficient access to tools and supplies, improving workflow. Additionally, they are adaptable to both indoor warehouses and outdoor storage areas, ensuring optimal use of space on construction sites.

Oxford Builders

Oxford Builders, a local full-service construction equipment and maintenance supplier engaged RACKsteel to install heavy duty pallet racking at their main yard. This project presented 2 unique engineering challenges, the installation was to occur in an outdoor environment as well as being located in a flood plain. RACKsteel’s skilled installers completed the installation in 2 phases, which allowed Oxford Builders to continue their operations with minimal disruption. At the same time, the engineering team successfully designed the racking system to meet the customer’s desired capacity, incorporating heavy-duty frames to ensure durability and support.

Traxxon Rock Drills

RACKsteel client Traxxon Rock Drills had the need for heavy duty racking in one of their buildings. Project consultant Kristeen worked with RACKsteel’s in-house Engineer to provide a solution that provided maximum pallet positions as well as maximum weight capacity for the pallet racking. Traxxons building had unique structural features that had to be worked around, as well as a unique requirement for “tunnel” length.
 
To achieve Traxxon’s  desired weight capacities on the pallet racking, RACKsteel built “double braced” frames in-house. RACKsteel accommodated the unique “tunnel” length by customizing beam length in-house, one of our many custom fabrication abilities. Our in-house Engineer and Kristeen combined their knowledge and were able to maximize a racking layout that avoided all unique structural features of Traxxon’s buildings. RACKsteel fabricated and installed custom row-end guards in-house to protect the “tunnel” frames from accidental forklift damage.
