Would you include the layer below the first layer too? Our drawing begins with boxes and doesn't show where the pallet supports actually run.

Yes, the pallet is a different support arrangement from another carton layer. I'd show both, with packaging identifying what each packed box needs beneath it.

Thanks Anil, the missing pallet view is the useful distinction here. I can ask for that without assuming the alternating pattern is already unsuitable.

And ask who maintains that combined view after tooling changes. It is easy for the support drawing to remain current while the release envelope quietly belongs to an older tool.
