Box Crush Test (BCT) Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Box Crush Test (BCT).
BCT = 5.876*ECT*SQRT(P*T)
Variables:
- BCT is the Box Crush Test (BCT) ( )
- ECT is the edge crush test (ECT)
- P is the box perimeter (in)
- T is the box thickness (in)
How to Calculate Box Crush Test (BCT)?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Box Crush Test (BCT).
- First, determine the edge crush test (ECT).
- Next, determine the box perimeter (in).
- Next, determine the box thickness (in).
- Next, gather the formula from above = BCT = 5.876*ECT*SQRT(P*T).
- Finally, calculate the Box Crush Test (BCT).
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem:
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
edge crush test (ECT) = 145
box perimeter (in) = 40
box thickness (in) = 3
BCT = 5.876*ECT*SQRT(P*T) = ?
