The variables are fixed as 1 set of 2 rows for shelves, loading aisles, and shelves.
Number of rows = Number of sets * 2 => 5 sets = 10 rows, and
the number of displayed storages = Number of rows * Number of rows * Number of rows * 2PL
Calculate the installation area based on Tera settings.
Change the Tera settings and recalculate by pressing the "Start calculation (re)" button.

PL packaging
 |
PL dimensions can be freely adjusted.
Note that total height (H) is the load height (H1) + PL thickness (H2). As an aside
, when checking the building floor strength, shelves with a maximum load of 1,000 kg are often calculated as an average load of 700 kg.
Even if the load capacity changes, the shelf support column width is usually 100 mm (strength is ensured by the support column thickness), and the clearance between the shelf and the load is usually 100 mm.
The adjacent clearance (distance between the building and the shelf) is often 200 mm, a value that takes into account the different swaying patterns of the building and the shelf.
Auxiliary aisles are not required when the main aisle and the shelf are adjacent.
The installation area calculation takes into account the increase in area due to interference from buildings such as columns and walls, and
requires approximately 1.2 times the calculated installation area. Columns are located at 7-10 m spans in both the row and column directions.

Forklift load reduction
requires a forklift lifting height of 200mm above the top beam height.
Normally, the higher the forklift lifting height, the lower the load capacity. A forklift one rank higher may be required. Forklift load reduction varies depending on the load center (size of the pallet) and lifting height.
| Points to note when using reach forklifts |

|
Many forklifts at distribution centers are reach types.
When setting up loading and unloading aisles, pay attention to the following points:
In the diagram on the left, the PL is placed on the front wheels (called outriggers) of the forklift.
In this case,
the PL hits the second beam before being pushed out from the forklift's outrigger.
