If using the density calculation to determine the BOL Class, the following is the calculation that will be used to determine the BOL Class. If using the part records BOL class or using FAK for the BOL Class, do not this calculation.
The calculation for determining BOL class by density is:
Density Level = (Weight / (Length X Width X Height) / 1728)).
Density Level Freight Class
Less than 1 400
1 but less than 2 300
2 but less than 4 250
4 but less than 6 150
6 but less than 8 125
8 but less than 10 100
10 but less than 12 92.5
12 but less than 15 85
15 but less than 22.5 70
22.5 but less than 30 65
Greater than 30 60
Examples:
1 Container
1 - 48X48X40 @ 450 pounds
(450 / ((48X48X40) / 1728)) = 8.4375
Freight Class 100
3 Containers
1 - 48X48X40 @ 400 pounds
1 - 40X40X40 @ 400 pounds
1 - 36X36X36 @ 400 pounds
(1200 / (((48X48X40)+(40X40X40)+(36X36X36)) / 1728)) = 10.22405
Freight Class 92.5
