Suggestions:
1. Convert Pallet area into units of square feet; ex.using Question
1: P.A. = [36 x 48]/144 = _______ sq ft.
2. Use this formula: Floor load limit x Pallet area = Pallet weight + Tie-down
weight + Max allowable weight
3. Solve for Max allowable weight.
Max wt = [FLL x PA] - PW - TDW
Most problems require this formula or a close variation of it. Good Luck! E.Morris
