Description: There are a number of factors temperature-controlled facilities should consider before implementing ASRS. The IACSC-IARW Construction/Codes Committee authored “Application of Automation within a Public Refrigerated Warehouse,” a white paper designed to help members understand reasons to consider ASRS, challenges that may arise with ASRS, and building considerations for ASRS. The paper also includes a handy checklist of design, construction, and scope considerations for an ASRS project.
