Details of palletised ammo dimensions and weights were included in RAOC Statistics Pamphlet No 2. I think the version I was familiar with was dated 1976, with amendments. Photos show our pyrotechnics site after the 1st Gulf War, where we were sorting serviceable from unserviceable and packing the serviceable for return to UK or Germany. The pallets where the boxes are stacked four high are yet to have the wooden battens (pallet furniture) and steel tape banding added but are otherwise complete. The boxes are mostly steel H83 containing a version of the L8 smoke discharger grenade for use in AFVs. Some loose grenades can be seen in the bottom right corner of one of the photos.
Pallet types at that time were a mixture of Unit Load Containers (ULC) eg for heavier natures such as 155 mm Howitzer and Swingfire anti-tank missiles and Unit Load Specifications (ULS), both metric and imperial, for the smaller natures. The pallets in the photos are to ULS, probably metric. We had wood brought to the site and cut the pallet furniture to size on the site.
