The Pellegrino Seismic Base Isolation System
The Pellegrino Base Isolation Seismic System dissipates up to 85% of the seismic energy that can be exerted on a pallet rack storage system during an earthquake. This base isolation unit is positioned between the columns of an upright frame and anchored to the floor, allowing the rack structure to move. Storage Rack System Requirements: • Maintain rack integrity during large seismic events • Reduce the risk of personal injury during an earthquake • Minimize product loss The Pellegrino Base Isolation Seismic System: • Meets new performance guidelines developed by FEMA • Passed rigorous testing at the Structural Engineering Earthquake Simulation.
