There are many factors affecting the choice of a space planning grid for an industrial building

representing a balance between economic construction and providing a flexible and robust

space for logistics operations seeking the minimum amount of columns in a space and a grid

AA LL
that supports storage and operations.

A typical solution is a column grid (steel or concrete) of 24 m x 12 m or similar, although

this may vary depending on the technology selected and site dimensions. The distance

between columns should not be less than 11 m in the short dimension and 20 m in the long

dimension. A typical grid is shown below.

warehouse area with a point load of 60 kN or higher.

Level tolerance of the floor should be always related to type of use and allow racking or

stacking over 8 m and is to be according to, for example, norm TR34 4th Edition – Concrete

industrial ground floors. In speculative construction the classification FM 2 (Special) should
