Comparison of Damage to Wood Pallets in Use with Damages Occurring Using the Virginia Tech FasTrack Simulation of Pallet Use

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
The durability of a pallet affects the amount of use a pallet can withstand before functionality is lost. A reliable prediction of durability can be used to determine the effect of pallet performance on supply chain operating costs. The objective of this

Analytical modelling and experimental assessment of metal pallets. Mechanical behaviour and durability performance under microbiological, chemical and environmental attacks

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials
Although pallets made of different materials are used to transport goods in large quantities worldwide, traditional codes provide design values not directly applicable to metal pallets. In this work, a mechanical model has been proposed by providing simplified analytic exact equations for these types of pallets.
