The self-supporting warehouses are the most cost-effective means of optimising space at height to the maximum thanks to the fact that the racks, roofs and sides form a closed building. These installations are calculated and designed to meet the needs of each client and can be made up of conventional or automatic systems.

For the design of these buildings it is extremely important to know the loads to be supported and the climatic forces of water, wind, snow and physical forces as well as the degree of seismicity at the installation site.
