The self-supported racks warehouse with the advantages of high space utilization, short construction period and low overall cost, has great application value and market prospects. Due to the lack of domestic design specifications for self-supported racks warehouse, there are few market applications in China. Based on the requirements of relevant Chinese structures design codes and fire protection design codes, the application of a self-supported racks warehouse in a cigarette logistics system is studied. Combined with the actual needs of cigarette logistics projects, a self-supported racks warehouse is designed to meet the requirements of a cigarette logistics distribution center. Compared with the traditional high racks warehouse, the advantages are obvious. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
