plywood shields (see 5.3). The plywood shall be secured to the cross members with metal
mechanical fasteners or clamps of such type, size, and quantity to assure positive positioning of the
shield. Alternatively, strategically positioned wood cleats may be attached to the plywood shields to
perform the same function. When portions of a component of the pump unit extend below the
plywood shield, provisions shall be made in the shields to accommodate those portions and they shall
be protected by a wood cleated, 3/4-inch thick plywood enclosure that is secured to the shield.
Nominal 2-inch by 4-inch wood joists shall be attached to the plywood shields, as required, to add
rigidity and to act as a batten when butting (splicing) two pieces of plywood together.

unit) shall be placed in a snug-fitting fiberboard box conforming to PPP-B-636, weather-resistant.

The cover shall be constructed in accordance with MIL-C-104, type II, class 2, style a, except that the
wood skid base shall be omitted and that the lower frame members of the sides and ends shall be
positioned flush with the bottom edge of the plywood sheathing. The crate shall be constructed to
allow removal of the complete assembly using standard slings.

secured to the skid mount, under the cover, with flat steel strapping conforming to QQ-S-781,
finish B.

positioned around the perimeter of the skid and the cover shall be bolted to the cleats.
Space permitting, cleats shall be the same size as lower frame members of cover, sides
and ends.
b. By the attachment of metal angles or channels to the top of the skid mount. Such angles
or channels shall be positioned around the perimeter for the skid and the cover shall be
bolted to the angles or channels.
c. By the attachment of series of clips on the outside of the cover at the bottom of the sides
and ends. Such clips shall be bolted to the skid mount.
