Performance Oriented Packaging Testing of PPP-B-601 Wood Box for 300 GR/FT Flexible Linear Shaped Charge for Packing Group II Solid Hazardous Materials

Abstract

Qualification tests were performed to determine whether the in- service PPP-B-601 Wood Box used for shipping and storage of 300 Grains per Foot Flexible Linear Shaped Charges could be utilized to contain properly dunnaged solid type hazardous materials weighing up to a gross weight of 21 kg (46.2 pounds). The tests were conducted in accordance with Performance Oriented Packaging (POP) requirements specified by the United Nations Recommendations on the Transportation of Dangerous Goods, ST/SG/AC.10/1 and the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49 CFR, Parts 107 through 178. The wood box has conformed to the POP performance requirements; i.e., the box successfully retained its contents throughout the specified tests.
