Performance Oriented Packaging Testing for M218, M219, M220 Prop Charge Containers. Packed 672 Per Fiberboard Box in Accordance with DWG. 9313721

Abstract

This report contains the testing and test results performed on propelling charges packed in a fiberboard box. Containers were utilized to simulate the proper content weights. Stacking, vibration and drop tests were conducted. The requirements of CFR were exceeded since one container experienced all the drops. The container experienced no structural damage from vibration tests and therefore there was no spillage of contents, satisfying the passing criteria. The container uniformly compressed a total of 1/16 of an inch and adequately supported the load, satisfying the passing criteria for stacking.
