	Executive Members manufacture and control the structural design and manufacture of industrial steel storage rack. Executive Members can participate in all RMI membership activities.
	General Members manufacture and control the structural design and manufacture of industrial steel storage rack. General Members have limited participation in RMI membership activities.
	Associate Members include manufacturers of structures or structural components of the following types: Portable Racks designed to stack, Pallet Stacking Frames, or Structural Rack Decking. Associate Members also include manufacturers of rack repair and safety components for industrial steel storage rack. Associate Members have limited participation in RMI membership activities.

Material properties of cold-formed steel under subzero temperatures Cold-formed steel (CFS) structures are becoming increasingly prominent in many construction scenarios because of its distinct advantages, which includes light-weight, easy and low cost for stacking, transportation, and construction.

Warehouse Fire Sprinkler Codes and Impact on Storage Racks Warehouse fire statistics and insurance losses will set background for discussion. Pertinent national codes and standards will be identified for use in designing of sprinkler protection along with the permitting process and key personnel roles. Certain rules are followed in the protection scheme process: what is stored (commodity); how is it stored (density or racking type) and how high is it stored. Special cases will be reviewed involving unique products storage or environmental constraints.

RMI of MHI presents: Planning Your Rack System – Traditional and E-Commerce As ecommerce becomes the norm in warehousing and distribution, the need to adapt storage and retrieval systems is imminent. RMI industry experts will share how rack system designs are changing to meet the requirements in the ecommerce world.

RMI of MHI presents: Storage Rack Safety 101 The safe use of a storage rack system is key to the productivity of a warehouse. We discuss the resources available from the Rack Manufacturers Institute that can be used to design and implement a safe rack system. We discuss the inspections necessary in maintaining a safe rack system. We discuss how to assess rack damage and how to make a repair or replace decision.

Considerations for the Planning and Use of Industrial Steel Storage Racks The objective of this seminar is to expose participants to the latest racking technologies available and how to make the best assessment for their facility.

Resources and Frequently Asked Questions The objective of this seminar is to provide information about the Rack Manufacturers Institute (RMI), provide highlights from the storage rack specification, and to review important Frequently Asked Questions
