The effect of stringer design and leading-edge design on the strength characteristics of wooden pallets

Impact shear and static flexure tests were performed on pallet stringers notched with six different fillet radii. These notches were cut with a band-saw or a stringer-notcher. Attempts were made to reduce the incidence of stringer fracture between the notches (a) by nail-reinforcing the stringers ad...
