For a warehouse area of approx. 1,800 EURO_pallets of capacity compare,
Warehouse renting cost
●
for the following 4 scenarios,
1. Conventional racking with counterbalance forklift (see details on slide 4)
2. Conventional racking with reach truck (see details on slide 4)
3. Conventional racking with very narrow aisle truck (see details on slide 4)
4. Drive-in racking with counterbalance forklift (see details on slide 5)
and propose and explain the solution that minimizes annual overall cost and explain the
results.

Support data 1: conventional racking model
Bay
Overcapacity of forklifts and personnel can be used in other warehousing operations
The design on each scenario must be a multiple of the 'standard bay'
Round the number of aisles in scenarios 2 and 3 to the closest whole number (+ or -)*
The conventional rack has 12 bays of depth. The drive-in depth is to be calculated
