2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the fabrica

3、tion of new fiberboard boxes, liners and sleeves.1.2 This practice points out the factors and components that must be controlled in the manufacture of corrugated and solidfiberboard boxes, liners and sleeves.1.3 This practice does not cover the adequacy of fiberboard containers under all conditions

4、of exposure to atmosphere, handling,shipping and storage.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI unitsare shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must

5、 be usedindependently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appro
