Large-scale testing has produced large amounts of data and also interesting video footage. Short clips are provided for each of the Workpackage 9 trials. Full details of the experimental work can be found in the workpackage 9 deliverables.

Both full and part full containers have been trailed. Full containers would equate to conditions found during transport and may be representative of some storage. Part filled containers will probably represent the configuration used where ISO containers are used for storage and would most likely have an aisle down the centre to allow access to the fireworks.

The additional trial with an earth covered container may give some indication of the likely results where an ISO container is in a stack as could occur on a transport ship or at the docks during handling. Additionally, this may show the effects that could occur in a stronger build magazine type store.
