Jerome, likely believing that the term was describing the planet Venus, employed the Latin term âLuciferâ (âlight-bearingâ) to designate âthe morning starâ (Venus). Only later did the suggestion originate that Isaiah 14:12ff. was speaking of the devil. Eventually, the name Lucifer came to be synonymous with Satan.
The standard North American pallet, or GMA pallet, has deckboards of 40 inches and stringers of 48 inches. Four-way pallets, or pallets for heavy loads (or general-purpose systems that might have heavy loads) are best lifted by their more rigid stringers.
It is also common to charge by the pallet for storage, rather than by each individual SKU. For example, a fulfillment house may have a monthly charge of $17 per pallet. The average pallet size is 48â x 48â x 48â, which is 110,592 cubic inches, or 64 cubic feet.
