| Summary |
|---|
| Storage systems are an integral part of logistics processes. These are storage, transport, handling, packaging, weighing, sorting, dividing or sorting processes. Basic storage systems include tanks, silos and bunkers as basic construction and machinery. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
Students should acquire the following skills by completing this course:
- identify the storage system,
- verify the basic mechanical and physical characteristics of the stored material,
- identify the load and find critical locations,
- verify by calculating the basic load of the storage system.
Students should be competent in this subject by:
- basic design calculations of simple storage systems. |
