Looking for advice on the subject question. I built this thing today out of 2x4s, 2.5 in construction screws (several at every joint), and OSB. I am using it for garage storage. It will carry a lot of weight, but I don’t know exactly how much I’ll put on it yet. I would guess one of two hundred lbs per shelf. A lot, but not a huge amount.
I could add additional supports to the shelves, if needed. Is this thing solid or is there something missing in my design that should be there?
