Objective
The proposed research corresponds to the problem of structural safety and design methods with regards to resistance to earthquakes (Section 3.2.2.2 f) in the Proposers Guide). There are now technical limitations in the field of safety and design of storage racks in seismic areas: lack of knowledge on actions challenging the structures, lack of knowledge on structural behaviour in terms of ductility and sliding conditions of the pallets on the racks and lack of Standard Design Codes in Europe.
To solve partly these limitations, the objectives of this project are to increase knowledge on actual service conditions of storage racks, to increase knowledge on actual structural behaviour of them and to assess design rules for racks under earthquake conditions.
