As we’ve seen in the eLearning, we need to configure boxes sothat we get as many as possible in an ULD. In the followingexample, we load a 40 foot container for shipment on a wide bodyaircraft. Determine the load planning configuration to get themaximum number of boxes into the aircraft. Container dimensionsLength Width Height " " " Package dimensions Length " Width "Height " We have a standard 40’ (FEU) that has internal dimensionsof 473" x 91” x 93” high and boxes 36” long x 27” wide x 24” high.We can put the boxes so the 36” side is across the container andthe 27” side is lengthwise in the container. This gives us: A =473/27 = 17 long B = 91/36 = 2 wide and C = 93/24 = 3 high 1. So ifwe orient the boxes this way, we can fit: A long by B wide by Chigh = Volume Fill = cargo volume x 100 = __________ containervolume 2. If we orient the boxes the other way: B long by A wide byC high = B = 473/36 = 13 long B = 91/27 = 3 wide and C = 93/24 = 3high B long by A wide by C high = Volume Fill = cargo volume x 100= _________ container volume 3. But an even better way is to puttwo boxes widthwise and one lengthwise to get: 27” + 27” + 36” =90” in a container width of 91” (a perfect fit) How many boxestotal? __________ Volume Fill = cargo volume x 100 = __________container volume 4. Is the final volume fill acceptable? 5. If wedetermine that our weight is far below the capacity of theaircraft, can you think of ways we can change our load plan thatwould improve our percentage fill for the container?
