pallet in section 54 but shorter in sections 55 57 to accommodate the stringers a second reinforcing section 81 is formed from a blank 83 and notched at the sides at 85 in the same pattern as in fig5 the ends 87 are cut to be the full length of the pallet while accommodating the junction of stringer and cross bracing fig7 a is an exploded view of how the reinforcement pieces for fig5 and 6 are assembled flat section 83 from fig6 is pressed into position parallel to the stringer below the top of the flutes of stringer 21 and below cross brace 1 with ends 87 projecting the full length of the stringers the reinforcing pieces 51 are bent at creases 61 63 the sections 55 57 become additional flutes which reinforce stringers 21 and cross braces 1 as shown in fig7 b the assembled frameworks 89 is seen in fig7 c the space between section 54 and section 83 is sufficient for form openings 91 which will accept the tines of a forklift a deck in the form of a flat panel 29 and a floor in the form of a flat panel 31 then are adhered to the top and bottom of the framework 89 to complete the pallet pallets of this construction have been shown to support over 6 000 pounds 2700 kg in another.
