MEZZANINE FAQ
Our team of specialists will be able to assist you in designing the most cost-effective way to support your mezzanine. Common solutions include structures created from a design containing a combination of: beams, C-section, bar joist, and girder joists. Our experts at Concept Storage will be able to provide the best solution for your needs.
We offer several decking options for a variety of needs and use cases. Learn more about mezzanine flooring options here.Â
PSF is an abbreviation for Pounds per Square Foot, and is a measurement of load capacity across your mezzanine. A standard mezzanine will generally support 125 pounds per square foot (PSF), but a variety of different materials can be used to increase the overall PSF limit of your mezzanine, making it more capable of handling heavier loads. Design load is the load in PSF averaged over the entire surface rather than a single heavy area on the structure known as a point load. Knowing the difference is essential when designing a safe mezzanine.Â
We do not evaluate the capabilities of your current slab. However, we are able to provide loading information to an engineer to help determine whether your slab can support your mezzanine or if new footings are required.
The minimum clear height under a mezzanine is usually at least 7′. This is also the same clear height between the decking of the mezzanine and the ceiling of your warehouse. Items to take into account when determining the clear height include positioning of lighting, sprinklers, and other obstructions in addition to any other items of concern as your jurisdiction evaluates.Â
