Test and Evaluation of the Bare Base General Purpose Shipping and Storage Containers.

摘要

Performance of leakage tests and cyclic exposure tests were requested by WR-ALC/DSP to investigate sources of pressure and moisture problems in Bare Base general purpose shipping and storage containers size 'C' and 'D'. Test results indicated several problem sources were in existence and could contribute to the pressure and moisture difficulties. It was concluded that these containers could provide a watertight environment only when used with extreme care and if no damage had been incurred to the cover structure (specifically to the stacking provision).
