  2. Container compression test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Container_compression_test

    The container compression test measures the compressive strength of packages such as boxes, drums, and cans. It usually provides a plot of deformation vs compressive force . It is commonly used to evaluate shipping containers made of corrugated fiberboard as well as wooden boxes and crates .

  3. Package testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_testing

    Compression test for steel drum. Compression testing relates to stacking or crushing of packages, particularly shipping containers. It usually measures of the force required to crush a package, stack of packages, or a unit load. Packages can be empty or filled as for shipment.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_(container)

    Henry Wehrhahn, employee of Nellie Bly's Iron Clad Manufacturing Company of New York, received two patents in December 1905 that would lead to the modern 55-gallon steel drum [2] [3] Use of 200-litre drums became widespread in World War II, the first war in which trucks, cold rolled steel, stamp or pattern forging machinery and welding were widely available.

  5. Compressive strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressive_strength

    Measuring the compressive strength of a steel drum. In mechanics, compressive strength (or compression strength) is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size (compression). It is opposed to tensile strength which withstands loads tending to elongate, resisting tension (being pulled apart).

  6. Salvage drum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvage_drum

    Unlike the original 49 CFR Salvage Drum requirement, the 'T' Salvage Drum is most commonly an 85-US-gallon (320 L) steel drum that, meets UN Model Regulations test requirement 6.1.5.1.11, which specifies that when filled with water, the drum can qualify for Packing Group II and be dropped 1.2 metres (3.9 ft) on its most critical orientation ...

  8. Strain (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_(mechanics)

    The amount of stretch or compression along material line elements or fibers is the normal strain, and the amount of distortion associated with the sliding of plane layers over each other is the shear strain, within a deforming body. [2] This could be applied by elongation, shortening, or volume changes, or angular distortion. [3]
