dc.description.abstract	An experimental program was established at the University of Sydney to determine the coefficient of friction between various types of timber pallets and a typical Dematic beam rail. In addition, another test series was also carried out to measure the shear stiffness of those timber pallets. The outcome of the study can be used as a guideline for further design enhancement of the drive-in rack system. This report summarizes the test results and their possible implementations.	en
