The structure designed and built by TORRI was intended for the Client’s brand new 4.0 factory, a leading manufacturer of shower enclosures and accessories. The two plants are fully automated , served by stacker cranes and handling systems.
Torri was responsible for supplying and installing the entire storage facilities, including perimeter guards and internal shelf security systems . The plant is designed in an earthquake-proof manner, and special arrangements have been implemented to counteract the effects due to dynamic stresses triggered by the high operating speeds of the stacker cranes.
The installation was carried out above a second floor of an industrial building ( slab height from the ground about 6 m), and therefore special precautions were taken to avoid affecting the strength of the metal cables embedded in the casting with the anchors fixing the structures to the ground. The total duration of the installation was about 20 weeks.
Salient features: installation carried out at second floor above a reinforced concrete slab containing a special metal cable reinforcement to be carefully avoided by anchors fixing the shelves .
