Steel pallet racks (SPRs) are used in the industrial buildings, warehouses and superstores
for storing a multitude of different kinds of goods. Because of changing needs over the years …

Beam-to-column connections (BCCs) used in steel pallet racks (SPRs) play a significant role
to maintain the stability of rack structures in the down-aisle direction. The variety in the …

Industrial racks are one of the most common structures for the storage of palletised goods.
The behaviour of these structures, which are built-up from thin-walled cold-formed steel …

The seismic hazard associated with failure of storage racks in retail facilities open to public
depends on the behavior of the rack frames and the response of stored merchandise. In this …

Unlike traditional bolted or welded steel connections, the beam-to-column connection in
steel pallet racks is established using a unique beam end connector with punched tabs …

This article presents a detailed numerical model of speed-lock (boltless) beam-to-upright
connections in steel storage pallet rack systems. The model is capable of predicting initial …

This study examines the structural performance of beam end connectors used as connection
device in semi-rigid boltless beam-to-column connections (BCCs) in steel pallet racks …

Due to many differences in the material, geometry, and assembly method of the
commercially available beam‐end‐connectors in steel storage pallet racks (SPR), no …

/ABSTRACT/This study experimentally and analytically examines the seismic vulnerability of
steel rack storage frames subjected to Korea earthquakes (2016 Gyeongju earthquake and …

Storage racks are nonstructural components mainly designed to support the vertical load of
goods. During strong external loads such as an earthquake, which acts in the lateral …
