• A modification of the principles of an elastic beam supported by an elastic, deformable, foundation can be used to estimate the compression stress distributions between the pallet deck and packaged products. The model inputs are the compression stiffness of the packaged product and the bending stiffness of the pallet deck.
• The compression stresses at the interface between the pallet deck and packaging are not uniformly distributed. Stress concentrations occur over the pallet stringers or blocks.
• Average applied compression stress levels of 6 to 7 psi resulted in compression stresses on packaging within a unit load from 0 to 50 psi, for the specimens tested. Maximum compression stresses can be five to ten times greater than the average applied stress.
Summary
SummarySummary
• Stiffer pallet decks and stiffer connections between the pallet deck and stringers or blocks, significantly reduces the maximum compression stress on the packaged product in unit loads.
• Pallet design can be used to reduce the compression stresses on packaging and reduce packaging cost.
