Pallets for materials handling - Flat pallets - Part 2: Performance requirements and selection of tests (ISO 8611-2:2011)
This part of ISO 8611 specifies the performance requirements to establish nominal loads for new flat pallets. It also specifies the tests required for new flat pallets in various handling environments and the performance requirements for tests with payloads. It is not intended to apply to pallets with a fixed superstructure or a rigid, self-supporting container that can be mechanically attached to the pallet and which contributes to the strength of the pallet.
Paletten für den Gütertransport - Flachpaletten - Teil 2: Leistungsanforderungen und Auswahl von Prüfungen (ISO 8611-2:2011)
Dieser Teil von ISO 8611 legt die Leistungsanforderungen für die Ermittlung der Nennlasten neuer Flach-paletten fest.
Außerdem wird festgelegt, welche Prüfungen für neue Flachpaletten bei verschiedenen Handhabungen erforderlich sind und welche Leistung in Prüfungen mit Auflasten zu erreichen ist. Dieser Teil der Norm gilt weder für Paletten mit festen Aufbauten noch für formstabile, selbsttragende Behälter, die mechanisch an den Paletten befestigt werden können und zur Festigkeit der Paletten beitragen.
Palettes pour la manutention - Palettes plates - Partie 2: Exigences de performance et sélection des essais (ISO 8611-2:2011)
L'ISO 8611-2:2011 spécifie les exigences de performance permettant d'établir les charges nominales pour des palettes plates neuves.
Elle spécifie également les essais nécessaires pour des palettes plates neuves dans diverses conditions de manutention et les exigences de performance pour des essais avec charges utiles. Elle ne s'étend pas aux palettes à superstructure fixe ou à conteneur autoportant rigide pouvant être fixés mécaniquement à la palette et contribuant à sa résistance.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 8611-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 51, Pallets for unit load method of materials
handling.
This first edition of ISO 8611-2 cancels and replaces ISO/TS 8611-2:2005, which has been technically revised.
ISO 8611 consists of the following parts, under the general title Pallets for materials handling — Flat pallets:
⎯ Part 1: Test methods
⎯ Part 2: Performance requirements and selection of tests
⎯ Part 3: Maximum working loads

Introduction
The forces to which pallets are exposed during use vary significantly. The test procedures described in
ISO 8611-1 are approximate simulations of pallet use. These tests help the pallet designer to establish an
initial acceptable balance between the cost and the performance of a pallet design. It is intended that all
results of tests performed using this protocol be confirmed and verified using field trials before publication of
performance or the commercial implementation of a new pallet design.
The nominal load, determined according to this test protocol, does not represent a payload and cannot be
verified using field trials. The nominal load is a minimum payload level for use in determining maximum
working load according to the procedures in ISO 8611-3. The maximum working load can be verified for a
specified payload and intended use, using field trials. It is intended that the publication of the maximum
working load include a description of the payload and the intended modes of use of the pallet.
It is essential to exercise care when comparing the results of tests with historic experience using existing
pallet designs. User expectations of pallet performance vary. Some require greater and some accept lower
levels of performance. Users are accepting different levels of risk when using pallets. Because of the varied
performance expectations of pallet users, the results of tests might not always reflect the user's perception of
pallet performance in use.
The nominal load might not reflect users' perception of pallet performance because the nominal load does not
represent a payload. It is intended that maximum working loads be used to compare with the historic
performance of existing pallet designs.
Regarding the use of the ISO 8611 series,
⎯ ISO 8611-1 describes the test methods,
⎯ this part of ISO 8611 describes the performance requirements and selection of tests, and
⎯ ISO 8611-3 describes tests for determining maximum working loads for known payloads.
ISO 8611-1 and this part of ISO 8611 are required for determining nominal load. The nominal load is the
lowest safe load value for the specified support conditions, independent of the type of load (excluding
concentrated loads).
ISO 8611-1, this part of ISO 8611 and ISO 8611-3 are required for determining maximum working loads for
known payloads.
The nominal load for the intended use is established by the selection of tests in ISO 8611-1 and the
performance requirement is established from criteria in this part of ISO 8611.
The following three types of intended use with specified support conditions are defined:
⎯ handling of loaded pallets with racking and stacking;
⎯ handling of loaded pallets without racking;
⎯ handling of loaded pallets without racking or stacking.
To determine the maximum working load through testing given in ISO 8611-3, the deflection under the known
payload cannot exceed the limiting deflection (see 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 of ISO 8611-3:2011) established in
ISO 8611-1 and this part of ISO 8611. The maximum working load is the greatest payload that a pallet can be
permitted to carry in a specific loading and support condition.

Guidance is given in Annex A of ISO 8611-3:2011 as to the general effect on performance of different load
types and stabilization methods. These can only give guidance as to the likely result from tests with the known
payload.
Other tests for durability evaluation are specified in ISO 8611-1.

Part 2:
Performance requirements and selection of tests
1 Scope
This part of ISO 8611 specifies the performance requirements to establish nominal loads for new flat pallets.
It also specifies the tests required for new flat pallets in various handling environments and the performance
requirements for tests with payloads. It is not intended to apply to pallets with a fixed superstructure or a rigid,
self-supporting container that can be mechanically attached to the pallet and which contributes to the strength
of the pallet.

references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 445 and the following apply.
3.1
breaking of one component
fracture of a structural element which significantly affects the strength, stiffness or functionality of a pallet
3.2
concentrated load
load concentrated over an area of less than 50 % of the pallet top deck
[ISO 445:2008, definition 2.3]
3.3
maximum working load
greatest payload that a pallet is permitted to carry in a specific loading and support condition
NOTE 1 This varies according to the type, distribution, arrangement and means of stabilization of the load and the
system of support, and can be lower or higher than the nominal load (see, for example, Clauses 4 and 6 and see also
ISO 8611-3).
