Abstract

Qualification tests were performed to determine whether the in- service MIL-B-2427 Wood Box used for shipping and storage of MJU-28/B Target Flares could be utilized to contain properly dunnaged solid type hazardous materials weighing up to a gross weight of 23 kg (50.7 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., it successfully retained its contents throughout the specified tests.
