ABSTRACT:
A composite package for shipping and storing a stack of individual sheets of glass or the like, and particularly, curved automotive glass articles. The package includes a reusable rack having resilient brace members which can be adjusted both vertically and horizontally so as to accommodate articles of various sizes supported upon edge. The resilient braces and the support members of the rack are provided with multi-planar surfaces for engaging the articles whereby the rack will accommodate a variety of articles of different curvatures, dimensions, and outlines. A novel unitized tie-down apparatus comprising pressure members, pads, and adjustable straps detachably connected to the rack frame apply uniform pressure to and securely hold a stack of curved sheet articles against the resilient braces and support members of the rack.
