1 Scope
This part of GB/T 4857 specifies the main performance requirements, test procedures and information of test report for test apparatus used to carry out vibration tests on transport packages or unit loads using a variable frequency.
This part is applicable to assess the performance of transport packages and unit loads in terms of the strength or the protection that they offer to their contents when subjected to sinusoidal vibration using a variable frequency. It may be performed either as a single test or as part of a sequence of tests.

3 Principle
The test specimen is placed on a vibration table and vibrated at a frequency which varies at a constant logarithmic sweep rate between 3 Hz and 100 Hz, which may be followed by vibration between ±10% of the principal resonant frequencies within the range from 3 Hz to 100 Hz. The atmospheric conditions, the duration of the test, the peak acceleration, the attitude of the test specimen and its method of restraint are predetermined.
When required, a load may be superimposed on the test item to simulate conditions at the bottom of a stack.
