operating costs offset the savings, bins and shelving

When mezzanine
platforms are used, they should have open-type metal
floors which will not obstruct the effective use of
sprinkler systems.

determination
of
storage
aid
requirements  should  be  made  prior  to  actual
development of stock layout planographs. Appropriate
adjustment  of  these  requirements  should  be
accomplished at any time it is found that increased
space utilization can be achieved. Typical storage aids
are bins, shelving, shelf boxes, and various types of
racks.
(a) Shelf boxes can provide a flexible
arrangement for efficient use of shelf space. The shelf
boxes provide retainer walls on four sides of the
material being stored thereby eliminating stock sloping
which wastes usable cube space. Shelf boxes can also
be "double stacked" on a bin shelf to facilitate use of
cubic space. When relocation of the item is required, it
can be accomplished by moving the shelf box with
contents. The result is reduced handling of loose stock.
Basic types of shelf boxes are-
1
Small, one compartment.
2
Small, two compartments.
3
Large, metal, one compartment.
4
Large, corrugated.
A complete study of shelf boxes has been made to
determine  the  sizes  which  provide  the  greatest
flexibility.
The  standard  small  one  and  two
compartment shelf boxes are 41/2 inches high, 51/2
inches wide, and 1 foot 5 inches deep as shown in figure
2-33. The standard large one compartment steel shelf
box is 103/8 inches high, 111/4 inches wide, and 171/2
inches deep as shown in figure 234. As shown in figure
2-35, the standard large corrugated shelf box is 8 inches
high, 10 inches wide, and 16 inches deep. Figure 2-36
