4.4 Preparing the building site
Chalk line

 Lay out the levelling plan and rack assembly
plan, if available
 Note that the proposed rack clearance is not
equal to the working aisle width because the pallets
protrude approx. 75 mm in to the aisle at a pallet
depth of 1200 mm. This overhang must also be
considered with walls and pillars of the hall.
 Measure the position of the rack lines and draw
the front edge of the upright on the floor.
Use tape measure and chalk line for it.

 You get a perfect straight line by aligning the
chalk line exactly, stretch it tight, pull it about 20 cm upwards and release. The chalk line
then hits the floor and thereby loses the previously added marking powder.

Levelling

 Mark out the upright bases.
 Uneven floors must be determined by laser level
or tube level at the points where the uprights will be
installed.
 The measured results are entered into an
upright plan.
 It is useful to get the necessary levelling material
ready (use only the approved solutions).
