LEGEND:
- "||" means parallel to
- "Y" represents the side of pallet
- "Z" represents the side of pallet
- "D" represents the internal length (deep) of container
- "W" represents the internal width (wide) of container
|
a comparison of the pallet yield in the 20' and 40' dry cargo containers, based on the total height of each loaded pallet of about 60"
and the internal dimension of 20' container
D = 232"
W = 92"
and the internal dimension of 40' container
D = 473"
W = 92"

The above indicates the stowing pattern is inapplicable or unnecessary due to the large-sized pallet or pallet with equal sides.
The % Floor Utilized is based on the highest Total Pallets (i.e., the highest total number of pallets in a container for the given pallet size, stowing pattern and pallet orientation).
