Unitized Polish TNT Fiberboard Boxes 42" X 53" Wood Pallet, Modified MIL-STD-1660 Test for Level "C" Transportation and Storage Cycle

Abstract

The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center (DAC), Validation Engineering Division (SJMAC-DEV) conducted modified MlL-STD-166O, "Design Criteria for Ammunition Unit Loads" for Level "C" transportation and storage on the unitized Polish TNT fiberboard box on a 42" x 53" wood pallet, which will be unitized by Alliant Techsystems, from Radford, Virginia. In short, Level "C" is defined as follows: a) Items are to be used or consumed at the first destination. b) Shock, vibration, and static loading will be encountered only during a limited transportation cycle. c) Items will be stored in a favorable warehouse environment for a temporary period of less than 6 months. d) Packing guards against the effects of expected environmental exposure during loading, unloading, or intransit delays. e) Packing is able to withstand stacking and superimposed loads during shipment and temporary storage.
