FE Modelling of Storage Rack Frames

Abstract:

This paper concerns storage rack frames and describes a study that led to the development of an FE model sufficiently accurate and simultaneously simple to be adopted by professional engineers. The presented FE model pays particular attention to storage rack frames susceptible to local/distortional buckling and down-aisle sway buckling. The influence of several strength parameters is also assessed with a special focus on the moment-rotation curve of the semi-rigid joints, including the detailed connection between members discretised into shell elements, and the modelling of perforations.
