Abstract

Composite material platforms or pallets (26) are provided for supporting items and carrying loads. One composite material platform has a composite material bottom deck (30) made of a composite material. The bottom deck (30) composite material has a core (40) having a resin matrix and microspheres, and at least one fiber flanking layer (42) integral with at least one side of the core (40). The core (40) and the outer flanking layer (42) are chemically coupled together and are non-delaminating. A spacer arrangement (64) is provided on top of the composite material bottom. A composite material top deck (50) is provided in top of the spacer arrangement. The top deck composite material has a core (40) having a resin matrix and microspheres, and at least one fiber flanking layer (42) integral with at least one side of the core (40). The spacer arrangement (64) can also be made of the composite material.
