1、Designation:D472817(Reapproved 2022)Standard Test Method forRandom Vibration Testing of Shipping Containers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4728;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last re
2、vision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the random vibration testing offilled shipping units.Such tests may be used to assess theperformance of a
3、container with its interior packing and meansof closure in terms of its ruggedness and the protection that itprovides the contents when subjected to random vibrationinputs.1.2 This test method provides guidance in the developmentand use of vibration data in the testing of shipping containers.NOTE1So
