 (0 votes) Calculating The Stability Of Your Model Rocket
by Victor Epand. There are many different factors that help to determine the flight capabilities of model rockets. For a model rocket to be considered stable it must be able to resist the drag coefficient in order to reach its maximum altitude while in flight. If a model rocket is unstable there is the chance of serious injury occurring. You should always find out roughly how stable your model will be before laun... products, articles
- (0 votes) How To Care For Your Model Tank
by Victor Epand. Does this sound familiar? You get a model tank home and put it together. You then place it on a shelf for display. Then it sits and sits. It just gathers dust until you finally decide to push it into a box instead of giving it the care it deserves. With just a little bit of care you can keep your model looking great and worthy of keeping its place on the shelf for years to come. You can even pass... products, articles
- (0 votes) Why Should You Detail Your Model Tanks?
by Victor Epand. Assembling model tanks can be both fun and informative. There can be a good deal more to it that just buying it and throwing it together. Most models come in one flat color. You might decide you would like to paint yours to look much more like the original that the model was designed from. Maybe the decals that came with your tank are not realistic or do not properly match the signs that would ha... products, articles

Must be Rocket Science :-( | |

The management in this branch of the company leaves much to be desired in the safety and hazard knowlege. ANYONE WILLING TO PURSUE THIS IS WELCOME TO EMAIL. Another attempt to fix it half way. These boxes weigh aprox 250lbs each and are 6ft long by 3ft high with no interlocking mechanism to hold them in place, no banding or stablizing ability at all.They just don't get it. If you have kids you know as well as I do that a box makes the best fort or whatever there minds can think of, doesn't it make sense that you would not only post the safety hazards of this area but cordon or fence it off? if not for your own safety at least for the safety of the children.
Factors that Affect Stacking Height
Having said all of that, and being a consultant, my answer to the question about safe stacking height has to be, "It depends." To determine a safe height, you need to address these questions:
What are you stacking?
What kind of container is it in?
What is the gross weight of the package?
How many packages can be stacked on top of one another before the bottom fails?
What is the loading capacity of the floor? The deck? The shelving?
What are the temperature and humidity conditions for storage?
How will these conditions affect the packaging? The product?
You also need to consider safety and ergonomic issues:
How will the package be handled - by hand or with equipment?
Will the stack have to be broken down by hand?
If so, will the employee have to reach overhead? Repeatedly?
If a package falls from a height, how hazardous is it if it hits an employee on the head, the shoulder? With or without a hard hat?
1. OSHA's standard 1917.14 states that: "Cargo, pallets and other material stored in tiers shall be stacked in such a manner as to provide stability against sliding and collapse." I assume that this includes the public who does not usually walk around with a hard hat on.You know and I wonder were all the fertilizer left in these boxes goes when the rain and snow seeps out so close to the groundwater???
