Technical Inquiry: Q&A
Question
"How does integrating high-density automation during a warehouse storage expansion affect seismic base shear coefficients in New Orleans, LA?"
Vanessa Glover Retrofitting & System Upgrade Specialist
Introducing automation like ASRS or pushback carts during expansion drastically alters the dynamic operational loads and shifts the center of gravity. Consequently, the seismic base shear calculations must be entirely re-profiled, typically requiring the installation of larger diameter wedge anchors and high-tensile longitudinal bracing.
