1.1 These test methods cover testing the integrity of unitized loads and large shipping cases and crates as well as the ability of the contents to endure rough handling. Not all of the test methods are applicable to all products, containers, and loads. These test methods are applicable to common means of material handling as follows:

1.1.1 Test Method A, B, C, D, and EDrop Test For measuring the ability of the case or crate or unitized load to withstand rough handling impacts and provide information useful in improving the design of the container. Normally, Test Methods A and B are not applied to unitized loads.

1.1.2 Test Method FTip Test For determining if filled tall or top heavy cases, crates, or unitized loads will tip over when tilted to a predetermined angle.

1.1.3 Method GTipover Test For determining the ability of filled large shipping cases or crates to resist the impacts associated with tipover hazards, and for determining the ability of the packaging and packing methods to provide protection to the contents, when the case or crate is tipped over.

Note 1Test Method G fulfills the requirements of ISO 8768. ISO 8768 may not meet the requirements for Test Method G.

1.1.4 Test Method HRolling Test For determining the ability of complete, filled large shipping cases or crates to withstand the effects of rolling.

Note 2Test Method H fulfills the requirements of ISO 2876. ISO 2876 may not meet the requirements for Test Method H.

1.2 Additional Test Procedures :

1.2.1 Test methods for mechanical handling of unitized loads and large shipping cases and crates are set forth in Test Method D 6055. Additional tests that apply to mechanical handling of unitized loads and large cases and crates include incline impact tests, described in Test Method D 880 and horizontal impact tests, described in Test Methods D 4003 and Test Method D 5277. Test Methods D 4003 includes a special pallet marshaling test and Test Methods D 1185 provides test methods for pallets and related structures.

1.2.2 Practice D 4169 provides a series of options for selecting and running performance tests on all types of shipping containers and systems.

1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The SI units given in parentheses are for information only.
