Laundry wire shelf.How long can the shelf span of the attic platform be designed

　　The attic platform shelf is a commonly used type of floor style warehouse shelf in warehouses, usually designed with 2-4 floors to fully utilize warehouse space and increase cargo storage capacity. The shelves on the attic platform are like houses and need to be supported by columns, with spans between them. How long can the shelf span of the attic platform be designed? Let's explore below.

　　Normally, the shelf span of the attic platform is designed to be around 3-4 meters. But some customers have higher requirements for span, because the larger the span, the more convenient it is for goods storage, similar to how having more columns in a warehouse can lead to insufficient utilization of space.

　　For example, a 6-meter span is something many customers may ask if it can be achieved, and the answer is yes, but larger materials are needed to ensure load-bearing.

　　Generally speaking, if a large span of 4-6 meters is required, the attic platform rack needs to be designed as a steel structure, that is, a steel platform rack. The steel structure has a greater load-bearing capacity, so the columns can be reduced and the span can be designed larger. But the cost will also be relatively high. If there is no special demand, choose a design with a smaller span.
