משמעות ושימוש
4.1 The practice provides guidance for evaluating transport units using a uniform system and using established test methods to represent the levels in the actual distribution. Recommended testing levels are based on available information about the shipping and loading and unloading environment and current industry/government practices and experience (1-13). 6 Tests shall be performed on the same containers in the given order. To be used as a performance test, this practice requires that the transport unit under test remain open until the test sequence is completed. If it is used for other purposes, such as packaging development, it may be useful to open and inspect shipping units at different times throughout the sequence. למרות זאת, this may prohibit evaluating the impact of container covers on container performance.
4.2 For the assignment cycle 18 mentioned in MIL-STD-2073-1, the use of this practice is defined in the subsequent section DC-18.

1.1 This practice provides a uniform basis for assessing the ability of transport units in the laboratory to withstand the distribution environment. This is done by subjecting them to a test plan consisting of a series of expected hazard elements encountered in various distribution cycles. This approach is not intended to replace material specifications or existing pre-shipment inspection procedures.
1.2 Consider using the convention D7386 to test packages shipped in a single package.
1.3 The suitability of this practice for hazardous materials has not been determined.
1.4 Values in inch-pounds shall be regarded as standard values. The values given in parentheses are mathematical transformations of SI units and are for reference only and are not considered standard.
1.5 This standard is not intended to address all safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health measures prior to use and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions.
