Calculation method
Calculation method
Bottom-case modeled supported load (kg equivalent)
(cases−1)×case mass×user multiplier.
Supplied load margin (kg equivalent)
Allowable−modeled supported load.
Maximum count under this simple model
floor(allowable/(mass×multiplier))+1; excludes pallet, stability and mixed-pattern effects.

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Simple aligned vertical column: bottom case supports every case above. Allowable load and multiplier supplied by user; no stacking certification. Supported limits: All numeric inputs and computed intermediates must remain finite. Supported numeric input magnitude is zero or 1e-12 through 1e12 in absolute value; reject values outside this bounded range. All lists/JSON record tables are limited to 100 records unless a stricter bound is stated; reject malformed record arity and wrong member types. All numeric values must be finite. Lists contain at most 100 records; required lists must be nonempty. Rates, probabilities and fractions are entered as fractions, not percentages; fractions must be between 0 and 1. Use a single consistent user-selected currency for all amounts; no exchange-rate conversion.
