(3) Heavy items and large quantities of bar,

pipe, and tubing stock may be stored in warehouses,

sheds, or open areas. Materials received in bundles,

crates, or other type unit loads will be stored in the unit

as received, whenever practical. Dunnage should be

placed between each layer of material when stacked

and, where necessary, binding cleats or stops will be

secured at each end of the dunnage to prevent shifting

or rolling materials (figs 5-61, 5-62, and 5-63). Stacking

height will be governed by safety factors, floor load

limits, and types of handling equipment utilized.

Handling materials in this type of storage may be

accomplished by fork trucks or cranes with appropriate

accessory devices such as bridles, straps, clamps, or

hooks.
