TOT Shirts Limited - London , a specialist in T - Shirt Design,
Print & Supply needed extra storage space for their raw materials.
Consultations with Penwright Supply's Designer established that
the portal framed building had sufficient height to accommodate
a mezzanine level.
The requirement of ensuring unhindered access to the warehouse from
the adjacent manufacturing / printing areas, via a number of access
doors to the rear of the proposed mezzanine position, was critical
in the design of the mezzanine. Strut bracing, used to provide stability
to the 140sq/m typical storage floor, minimised obstructions at
ground level.
The mezzanine support columns were positioned to provide access
into the warehouse next door, and the structural design ensured
that beam deflection was in accordance with British regulations.
Personnel access to the mezzanine level is via two staircases, and
Containerised materials are lifted to the storage level via a pallet
truck, which deposits materials through a pallet gate with safety
features.
