It's called pallet racking, by the looks of it it's the tear drop style which is the most common. If your looking to buy this type of shelving look around on cl in your area and you will find plenty. The vertical pieces are called uprights and the pieces that make the shelves are called the crossbars or beams. This type of shelving comes in about every size imaginable, and can support thousands of pounds per shelf. It's the same concept that is used in warehouses and places like Samsclub, Costco, etc.

back abotu 12 years ago before i was 18 we took about a dozen of the racks from behind a home depot lol and we used long pallets and a skid steer to lift them up there for storage.
