Industrial Racking Design

Racking and shelving design engineered for verified loads, clear clearances, and field-ready installation.

Specialized Engineering Services

Racking & Shelving 3D Modeling

Asset-Eyes develops 3D models and fabrication drawings for warehouse pallet racking systems, and applies the same detailed 3D modeling process to supermarket and retail shelving design. 

Warehouse Pallet Racking 3D Modeling
Asset-Eyes develops 3D models and fabrication drawings for warehouse pallet racking systems. This work carries the racking design from model through to fabrication-ready drawings.
Supermarket & Retail Shelving Design
Asset-Eyes designs supermarket and retail shelving systems through detailed 3D modeling. This modeling supports the same structural sizing and clearance verification process used for industrial racking.

Structural Load Sizing & Connection Design

Asset-Eyes sizes columns, beams, and base plates against operational loading requirements and building code criteria, then designs the connections — beam-to-upright interfaces, base plates, and anchor systems — that tie the structure together. 

Column, Beam & Base Plate Sizing
Asset-Eyes sizes columns, beams, and base plates based on operational loading requirements and building code criteria. This ensures the structure is sized to the actual loads and regulatory requirements of the installation.
Connection Design
Asset-Eyes designs connections for beam-to-upright interfaces, base plates, and anchor systems. These connections are engineered to transfer load correctly through the structure.

Material Handling Clearance & Facility Planning

Asset-Eyes verifies material handling equipment clearances directly in the 3D model — aisles, mast heights, and turning radii — then extends that same model into layout drawings for broader facility planning and equipment placement. 

Material Handling Clearance Verification
Asset-Eyes verifies material handling equipment clearances directly in the 3D model, including aisles, mast heights, and turning radii, to support equipment accessibility and operational requirements. This validation happens against the model itself rather than being checked after fabrication.
3D Model & Layout Drawing Development for Facility Planning
Asset-Eyes develops 3D models and layout drawings for facility planning and equipment placement. This supports coordination between the racking or shelving system and the broader facility layout.

Installation Planning & Field Coordination

Asset-Eyes plans and coordinates installation to minimize field modifications and construction rework, then documents assembly and installation instructions to support efficient field implementation. 

Installation Planning & Coordination
Asset-Eyes plans and coordinates installation to minimize field modifications and construction rework. This planning is informed directly by the clearance verification and structural sizing performed earlier in the design process.
Assembly & Installation Instructions
Asset-Eyes provides assembly and installation instructions supporting efficient field implementation. These instructions give installation teams a clear reference for assembling and installing the system on-site.

Fabrication Documentation & Procurement

Asset-Eyes provides structural fabrication drawings, fabrication cut lists, and bills of materials for racking and shelving projects, along with environment-specific material and finish specifications for procurement. 

Structural Fabrication Drawings
Asset-Eyes provides structural fabrication drawings supporting accurate manufacturing and assembly. These drawings serve as the primary reference for fabricators building the racking or shelving system.
Fabrication Cut Lists
Asset-Eyes generates fabrication cut lists directly from the 3D model for manufacturing accuracy. Generating cut lists from the model keeps them consistent with the final design.
Bills of Materials
Asset-Eyes provides bills of materials defining component specifications, materials, and procurement requirements. This supports accurate procurement for the fabrication process.
Environment-Specific Material & Finish Specification
Asset-Eyes specifies materials and finishes suited to the specific environment, supporting procurement and application requirements. Specification accounts for the conditions the racking or shelving system will operate in.

Racking Design Built To Load

Industrial racking design at Asset-Eyes sizes every column, beam, and base plate to actual operational loads and applicable building codes. Material handling clearances are verified directly in the 3D model, before fabrication begins.
Engineering Tools
1

SolidWorks

SolidWorks is used for 3D racking and shelving system modeling, sizing columns, beams, and base plates against operational loads. The model also supports direct verification of material handling clearances.
2

AutoCAD

AutoCAD is used for structural and fabrication detailing layouts, translating the racking model into drawings for manufacturing and installation. Documentation is developed against applicable building code standards.
