1、Designation: D7478/D7478M 11 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Specification forHeavy Duty Sheathed Wood Crates1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7478/D7478M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of l

2、ast 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 specification covers require

3、ments for two types andtwo classes of sheathed crates each of which may have twobase styles. The crates are designed for net loads not exceeding30 000 pounds lb 13 607 kg and to withstand the most severeoverseas shipping and storage conditions.1.2 The crates described by this specification are inten

4、ded toprotect items from atmospheric elements during shipment andstorage. They are designed to withstand the rough handling oflogistic operations including stacking and outside storage for aprolonged period.1.3 Class 1 and 2 crates may be used interchangeably asdesired. However, the Class 2 crate sh

5、ould be used whenweight is a prime consideration, as the lack of diagonals andthinner plywood sheathing results in a lighter crate.1.4 Demountable crates, Type II, should be used wheneverit is expected that the contained item will require reshipping toanother destination.1.5 Sill bases, Style B, are

6、 intended for items that projectbelow their mounting points, such as disassembled vehicles.1.6 If the use of other construction method or techniques isacceptable and permitted (see 5.10), the resulting packagingsystems shall be of equal or better performance than wouldresult from the use of these sp

7、ecified materials and procedures.The appropriate distribution cycle, specified in Practice D4169can be used to develop comparative procedures and criteria.1.7 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be

8、 exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard. See IEEE/ASTM SI 10 for conversion ofunits.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associa

9、ted with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.9 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles

22、nent parts discussed herein wereselected on the basis of part function. Alternate names aresometimes used by industry.3.2.2 diagonalsdiagonals are frame members positionedbetween parallel frame members and placed at nearly 45angles to them. Diagonals serve as braces and ensure rigidity inthe crate.3

23、.2.3 end frame membersend frame members are similarto side frame members but perpendicular to the long dimen-sion.3.2.4 filler stripsfiller strips are boards placed across theends of thin, non-load-bearing floorboards, which serve to fillthe space below the lower frame member of the crate sides.3.2.

24、5 frame membersframe members are those partswhich form the fundamental crate structure upon which thestrength and rigidity of a lumber-sheathed crate depends.3.2.6 hanger-metalhanger-metal is a metal nailed strapused to aid in support of the intermediate sill in sill-type bases.3.2.7 headersheaders

25、are either transverse members ateach end of skid bases or longitudinal members at each end oftop joists. Headers in bases serve to hold the base together asa unit, to transfer loads to outside skids, and to provide afastening member for end panels. Headers in top panels serveto position and support

26、joists and to provide a fasteningmember for side panels.3.2.8 horizontal braceshorizontal braces are memberspositioned between struts and parallel to the upper and lowerframe members and serve to reduce the unsupported span ofthe sheathing.3.2.9 joistsjoists are members extending across the crateund

27、erneath the top, which serve to support and transfer verticalstacking loads to the side panels. Joists also serve to preventcrushing or buckling of crate tops when slings or grab hooksare used.3.2.10 lag screw straplag screw strap is a metal reinforc-ing strap used on bolted crates sides and ends to

28、 reinforce andincrease lag screw lateral resistance.3.2.11 load-bearing floorboardsload-bearing floorboardsare transverse base members which serve to distribute andtransfer loads to the outside skids.3.2.12 rubbing stripsrubbing strips are longitudinal mem-bers nailed to the skid bottom to provide f

29、or sling and forklifttruck handling.3.2.13 sheathingsheathing is the plywood or boardsnailed to the frame members and enclose the crate. Sheathingused on the top panels is called top sheathing; that used on theside or end panels is called side or end sheathing; that nailed tothe top of skids is call

30、ed flooring; and that nailed to the bottomof sills is called bottom sheathing.3.2.14 side frame membersside frame members are themembers of the crate top, without joists, which are parallel tothe long dimension and serve as fastening members and to tiethe crate construction together.3.2.15 sill brid

31、gingsill bridging are members of the samedepth as the sills, which are inserted at right angles to theintermediate sills, and serve to prevent lateral sill turning orbuckling.3.2.16 sillssills are the members, which with sill bridgingform the frame work of sill-type bases. Sills carry and transferlo

32、ads to side panels and serve as fastening members. There areside, end, and intermediate sills.3.2.17 skidsskids are longitudinal members attached tothe crate bottom, which serve to support and transfer the loadto the side panels.3.2.18 sleeperssleepers are members underneath the floorof skid-type ba

33、ses to which the item is anchored (through thefloor) so that the tie-down stress will be distributed.3.2.19 strutsstruts are vertical frame members, placedbetween the side and end panels upper and lower framemembers, and serve as columns for supporting vertical stack-ing loads.
