ABSTRACT The invention relates to apparatus for storing and trans- porting heavy elongate workpieces such as round steel, sectional steel, steel pipes and the like. The apparatus comprises at least two stock racks (1) each of which is formed from two substantially U-shaped girders (5a, 6a, 7a, 5b, 6b, 7b) connected together. A carrying device (3) is also provided for use with a crane in lifting and moving the racks (1). The stock racks (1) of the apparatus of the present inven- tion are each provided with two suspension plates (9) which are each mounted between the two free ends of the girders (5a, 6a, 7a, 5b, 6b, 7b), and each suspension plate (9) has a part protruding upwardly beyond the girders which is bent inwardly and is hook shaped. The carrying device (3) is a traverse or beam with at least two pairs of arms (4) for engagement with the hooks of the suspension plate (9). Because the suspension plates (9) bent inwardly the arms (4) do not interfere with racks adjacent that which is engaged by the arms (4). The hook shaped portion of the suspension plates (9) allows engagement between the arms (4) and the stock racks (1) without manual assistance at ground level. - 1 -
