DANSK DSF/ISO/DIS 8611-1 PDF

This part of ISO 8611 specifies the test methods available for evaluating new flat pallets for materials handling. The test methods are split into groups for: – nominal load testing; – maximum working load testing; – durability comparison testing. It is not intended to apply to pallets with a fixed superstructure or a rigid, self-supporting container that can be mechanically attached to the pallet and which contributes to the strength of the pallet. NOTE – Specific tests for determining load capacity do not replace the value of conducting field tests on specific pallet designs.
