#35: Carrying a Heavy Load
Books and document binders are quite heavy, so it’s important to choose sturdy shelves that can hold this much weight. We’re not sure about these shelves, though, because, over time, they started to bend down from the weight of these heavy binders.
It’s also interesting to see how only half of the shelves bent down while the other half stayed overall straight despite the weight of the binders. Besides the weight of the book carrying them down, it looks like these shelves have been through a lot – it looks like water damage and weather damage was involved as well.
