How to Layout a Warehouse or Distribution Center

Modular Spine Design

A modular spine design utilizes a large material handling spine to connect independent buildings dedicated to specific warehouse activities in large scale warehousing and distribution environments. Examples include rack-supported buildings for a unit load AS/RS; an air conditioned low bay building for value added services such as monogramming, pricing and marking; a low-bay building dedicated to returns processing; or a low-bay shipping building equipped with high-speed sortation equipment.
