ABSTRACT:
A predominantly paperboard pallet is disclosed. Each of two outer stringers and one middle stringer or each of two outer stringers and two middle stringers is folded so as to have a given cross-section, preferably trapezoidal and tapering downwardly. Plural decking members having generally planar lower edges extend transversely through apertures in the respective stringers and are secured adhesively to the respective stringers. Each of two or four braces is folded so as to have a smaller cross-sections, preferably trapezoidal and tapering upwardly, and so as to have a generally planar upper edge. The middle stringer or middle stringers and the plural braces have interengaging notches and are secured adhesively to one another. The upper edge of each brace is secured adhesively to the lower edge of a selected decking member, on opposite sides of a selected stringer, which may be an outer stringer or a middle stringer. Each brace may have two notches, each receiving a portion of one of the middle stringers, whereupon each middle stringer has two notches with each notch receiving a portion of one such brace.
