2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This specification covers the fabrication and closure ofempty and full wood-cleated,hereafter referred to as wood-cleated,panelboard boxes.T
3、hese boxes are intended for use ascontainers for domestic and overseas shipment of generalmaterials and supplies,not exceeding 1000 lb 454 kgdepending on box type(see 10.1).1.2 Wood-cleated panelboard shipping box performance isdependent on its fabricated components and subsequent assem-bly;therefor
4、e,a variety of types,classes,styles,and treatmentsreflecting varied performance are specified.This specification,however,does not cover wood-cleated panelboard box perfor-mance under all atmospheric,handling,shipping,and storageconditions.1.3 If the use of other construction methods or techniques is
5、acceptable and permitted(see 5.1.17),the resulting packagingsystems shall be of equal or better performance than wouldresult from the use of these specified materials and procedures.The appropriate distribution cycle,specified in Practice D4169,can be used to develop comparative procedures and crite
