2. Falling Materials: Loose, poorly stacked, or unbalanced items can fall from heights, striking workers during stocking or retrieval.
3. Overloading: Exceeding weight capacity due to lack of inspection weakens racking integrity and increases the risk of failure.
4. Impact from Equipment: Forklift or pallet jack collisions with racking structures often go unreported and cause hidden structural compromise.
5. Missing Safety Pins or Clips: Improper assembly or missing locking devices can lead to beam dislodgement and collapse during normal use.
