Hey Guys,
I'm working in a new area of piping design for me. I'm designing a Rail/Truck loading/unloading facility. Does anyone have any literature I can have for design of these facilities or know where I can some. I mostly know what I'm doing, but I need it for the fill in the blanks information and as a reference.
Thanks,

hc,
have you tried "Google"?
This is the first one I found among over 900,000 hits
www.safe-harbor.com/loading-racks.html

Then this,
www.google.com/search?q=rail+ta ... =665&dpr=1

On the second one, behind every picture is a link to specific data.

Do it once and Do it Right

I have.....thanks JOP.

I'm looking for specific design information. Like the rack should be X amount from a track. The rack should be X amount high. If its double sided think about this etc etc....Good design practice type stuff.

I've designed them before. I'm trying to modularize (lego set) one now and am looking for practical information. Thoughts that make me know I am on the right path but, inspire me to think outside the box.

I know its not rocket science, but a friendly "how to" is nice to have if one exists. I'd like to know what rules of thumb I am not following correctly.
