- Clear heights for racking 32–40 ft in the US
- 1 kit
- Frame, envelope, doors, docks
- EXC3 · CC3
- Certified fabrication
The warehouse starts with the racking
A warehouse earns its money per pallet position and per truck turn. That is why we start with your storage system, handling equipment, dock flow and sprinkler design – and only then fix spans, column grid, clear height and bracing. Columns land inside rack rows, bracing stays out of aisles, the roof carries sprinkler and solar loads, and the floor is not interrupted where trucks need flatness.
World Steel delivers the structure and envelope as one engineered kit: primary frames, secondary members, roof and wall cladding, insulation, skylights, doors and framed openings, canopies and mezzanines – fabricated in our certified plant in Vietnam and shipped with erection drawings and a complete quality dossier.
Building types
Warehouse types
One engineering platform for every logistics format – from a single clear-span store to a regional distribution hub.
up to about 60 m
90 m and wider
Multi-span distribution centres
Interior columns placed in rack rows, so very wide buildings stay economical while aisles remain free.
docks both sides
Cross-dock terminals
Narrow, long buildings with docks on both sidewalls, continuous canopies and a fast flow from inbound to outbound.
20 m + high bay
Rack-supported warehouses
The racking carries roof and walls – ideal for automated high-bay stores; designed with the racking supplier.

Kỹ thuật
Fast, predictable delivery
Warehouses are usually on the critical path of a business plan. Our pre-engineered system turns approved drawings into fabricated, numbered parts in weeks; bolted connections and erection drawings let local crews erect quickly, with our supervisors on site when needed.
Docks, canopies, doors and openings are framed as part of the design – not cut in later – so loads, deflections and tolerances are right for dock levellers and high-speed doors.
Kỹ thuật
A roof built for sprinklers and solar
Modern logistics roofs carry ESFR sprinkler mains, lighting, ventilation and increasingly rooftop solar. We design for these collateral loads from day one, with standing-seam or through-fastened roofs, skylights and insulation to meet the energy code.
Mezzanines for pick modules, offices and conveyors are integrated in the same model – one structural responsibility for the whole building.

Câu hỏi thường gặp
What span can a steel warehouse have without interior columns?
Clear spans of about 30–60 m are common and economical with tapered portal frames; wider buildings usually use multi-span frames with interior columns placed inside the rack rows.
How high should the warehouse be?
It follows the racking and sprinkler design: clear heights of about 10–14 m are typical for modern distribution centres in Europe and Australia, and 32–40 ft in the US. We design the frame for the clear height under the lowest roof member.
Can the racking support the building?
Yes – in a rack-supported (clad-rack) warehouse the racking carries the roof and walls. It is designed together with the racking supplier, usually for automated high-bay storage.
Do you supply doors, docks and mezzanines?
Framed openings, dock canopies, mezzanines, stairs and platforms are part of our kit; roller doors, dock levellers and shelters can be supplied through partners or by your local contractor.
Which codes do you design to?
IBC / ASCE 7, AISC 360 and the MBMA manual in the US, AS/NZS 1170 and AS 4100 in Australia and New Zealand, Eurocodes with EN 1090 in Europe and TCVN in Vietnam – or the code in your specification.
