ABSTRACT

A grid framework structure, configured to support one or more load handling
devices, includes: a first set of grid members extending in a first direction
and a second set of grid members extending in a second direction, to form a
grid structure having grid cells. A plurality of vertical uprights create a
storage space for storing containers in a stack such that load handling
devices operative on the grid structure can lift containers through a grid
cell from a stack below the grid structure. The vertical uprights are arranged
such that a section of the grid structure including four adjoined grid cells
is supported by five or fewer vertical uprights.
