scope:
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.
