| | Handling unit dimensions, example BThis example describes the dimensions of handling units within a
handling unit structure in which the parent has no packaging item, and the
children have various internal packaging items. Parent handling unit HU00C has no packaging item. Handling unit
HU00C has 12 child handling units, each of which has a user-defined internal
packaging item of type Box. The dimensions of the packaging items are as
follows: | Dimensions | Box | Box A | Box
B |
|---|
| Width | 0.2 m | 0.1
m | 0.25 m | | Length | 0.5 m | 0.25 m | 0.5 m | | Height | 0.1 m | 0.05 m | 0.2 m | | Floor Space | 0.1 m2 | 0.025 m2 | 0.125 m2 | | Volume | 0.01 m3 | 0.00125 m3 | 0.025 m3 |
In such cases, the dimensions are calculated as
follows: Width For the parent, the aggregated width of the internal packaging
items of the child handling units is calculated. The type of packaging item of
the child handling units is Box, therefore the aggregated width of the
packaging items of the child handling units is 12 * 0.2 m = 2.4 m2. Length For the parent, the depth value of the internal packaging item
of an individual child handling unit is taken as the depth value. The depth
value of internal packaging item Box is 0.5 m. Therefore, the depth value for
the parent will be 0.5 m. Height For the parent, the height value of the internal packaging item
of an individual child handling unit is taken as the height value. The height
value of internal packaging item Box is 0.1 m. Therefore, the height value for
the parent will be 0.1 m. Floor Space The aggregated floor space of the child handling units is taken
as the floor space for the parent. In the example, the handling unit has 12
child handling units, therefore, the floor space for the parent is 12 * 0.1 m2
= 1.2 m2. Volume The aggregated volume of the child handling units is taken as
the volume for the parent. In the example, the handling unit has 12 child
handling units, therefore, the volume for the parent is 12 * 0.01 m3 = 0.12 m3.
