Abstract
The U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center (DAC), Validation Engineering Division (SJMAC-DEV) conducted MIL-STD-1660 Tests, "Design Criteria for Ammunition Unit Loads" on the 40" x 48" Quick Crate Container manufactured by League Manufacturing, from Greenville, SC. Two (2) containers were tested with a load of 4,055 lbs. each. The tests accomplished on the test units were the stacking, vibration, drop, incline impact, forklift handling, and disassembly tests. The containers passed all requirements with no significant problems encountered. As a result of the performance of the container, the 40" x 48" Quick Crate Container manufactured by League Manufacturing is suitable for United States Army use in such applications as retrograde repacking operations.
