4、es.1.3 This practice does not cover the adequacy of fiberboardcontainers under all conditions of exposure to atmosphere,handling, shipping and storage.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brac

5、kets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system mustbe used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associ
