Container Size, Number and Load Options

Analysis on some possible methods of stowing product DX and the total number of cartons that will fit into a container, based on the internal dimension of the general purpose container and the Diagram: Package Orientation, is as follows:

Method of Stowing

(A) Stowing the front (length) of all cartons parallel to the side (length/deep) of container.

(B) Stowing the front (length) of all cartons parallel to the end (width/wide) of container.

(C) Crosswise stowing---alternate each row in the wide (shown below) using the methods (A) and (B), that is, a row of CA alternate with a row of CB presented below.

Container		Method (A)		Method (B)
20' x 8.5' Standard Container	deep	12	rows	19	rows
	wide	7	rows	5	rows
	high	7	layers	7	layers
	Total:	588	cartons	665	cartons
	Cube:	882	cu. ft.	997.5	cu. ft.

Container		CA		CB		Method (C) (C) = CA + CB
20' x 8.5' Standard Container	deep	12	rows	19	rows
	wide	3	rows	3	rows
	high	7	layers	7	layers
	Total:	252	cartons	399	cartons	651	cartons
	Cube:					976.5	cu. ft.

Container		Method (A)		Method (B)

	high	7	layers	7	layers
	Total:	1,274	cartons	1,365	cartons
	Cube:	1,911	cu. ft.	2,047.5	cu. ft.

Container		CA		CB		Method (C) (C) = CA + CB
40' x 8.5' Standard Container	deep	26	rows	39	rows

	high	8	layers	8	layers
	Total:	1,456	cartons	1,560	cartons
	Cube:	2,184	cu. ft.	2,340	cu. ft.

Container		CA		CB		Method (C) (C) = CA + CB
40' x 9.5' High Cube Container	deep	26	rows	39	rows
	wide	3	rows	3	rows
