Racking inspections involve evaluating the condition, safety, and compliance of your racking structures. These inspections are essential to ensure that the racking structures are safe, properly maintained, and meet relevant safety standards and regulations.
During a racking inspection, trained inspectors assess various components of the rack system, including beams, columns, bracing, decking, and pallet beam connectors. They look for signs of damage, wear and tear, overloading, misalignment, and other potential issues that could compromise the structural integrity of the racks. Inspections may also involve checking load placements, clearances, labelling, and compliance with load capacity guidelines.
Regular racking inspections help prevent accidents, ensure safe working conditions, prolong the lifespan of the storage equipment, and maintain compliance with industry regulations. Inspections can be conducted by internal staff trained in racking safety or by third-party inspection services to provide unbiased assessments and recommendations for maintenance or repairs.
