The refrigerated warehouse resembles a general purpose warehouse although it is usually smaller, as can be seen in figure 2-4. Truck and railcar docks may be on opposite sides of the warehouse or combined on one side. 1. The interior of the warehouse is normally divided into two parts. One part is designated as chill space in which the temperature can be controlled between 32 and 50 (0 and 10 °C). The other part is designated as freeze space in which the temperature can be controlled below 32 (0 °C). 2. When the warehouse is divided into chill and freeze space, there are no main aisles that run the length of the warehouse. Cross aisles provide the access to railcar and truck docks. 2-3
