Multi-System Racking Project for Parr Lumber, Damascus OR

07/17/2026

Request / Problem

The Damascus location needed storage for nearly every product category the client carries: from dimensional lumber to boxed hardware to trim. That mix of long bulky stock, palletized goods, and upright-format materials meant no single rack system would cover it. The facility's Moderate Hazard / High-Piled Storage occupancy also required full structural engineering and permitting before installation.

Solution

Speedrack West designed and installed three racking systems, each matched to a specific product category: cantilever for long lumber, pallet rack for boxed hardware, and A-Frame/vertical storage for trim and sheet goods. Our structural engineer of record handled the calculations and permit drawings, engineered to Seismic Design Category D. The system passed final building inspection.

Process Overview

01

Understanding Requirements

The client needed one facility to store nearly its full inventory range: dimensional lumber, sheet goods, trim, hardware, and accessories. The Moderate Hazard / High-Piled Storage occupancy classification meant the project required full structural engineering and a building permit before installation could start.

02

Implementing the Solution Within the Budget and Schedule

Speedrack West designed three complementary systems: double-sided cantilever racking for long lumber, a mix of bolted and selective pallet rack for hardware, and custom A-Frame/vertical storage racking for trim and sheet products. Our structural engineer of record signed and sealed the calculations and permit drawings, engineered to Seismic Design Category D under the 2021 IBC and ASCE 7-16.

Outcomes and Continued Partnership

The completed system passed final building inspection; the inspector’s note: “Racking appears per plan.” The client now has one facility, one vendor, and one engineered system covering its full inventory range.

The Main Problems that Speedrack West had Solved

The Main Problems that Speedrack West had Solved

  • DESIGNED THREE SYSTEMS FOR ONE FACILITY

    Matched cantilever, pallet rack, and A-Frame/vertical storage to the specific product categories they needed to hold — long lumber, boxed hardware, and trim.

  • ENGINEERED TO SEISMIC CATEGORY D

    Every system was calculated and stamped by a structural engineer of record to meet seismic requirements under the 2021 IBC and ASCE 7-16.

  • HANDLED PERMITTING END TO END

    Managed the full permit package for a Moderate Hazard / High-Piled Storage occupancy so the client didn't have to navigate it alone.

  • CUSTOM-FABRICATED FOR NON-STANDARD INVENTORY

    Built custom 16 ft A-Frame frames with 8 ft kick plates and dividers, since standard vertical storage racking didn't fit the client's trim and sheet-good sizes.

Minimal Gear

Kyle Gersman says: “I called Bill multiple times a day and he always picked up and was always very helpful. What I really liked is that they pointed out a lot of questions and processes that I didn't even have on my radar going into the move. It helped me expand the scope to an appropriate size of what I needed to consider as we made the transition to a bigger facility.”
