    {
      "q": "What is an allocation?",
      "a": "It is the volume and gross weight your forwarder confirms for your shipment. Enter those amounts, rather than the whole container capacity when sharing space."
    },
    {
      "q": "Does a result below 100% prove the cartons fit?",
      "a": "No. This is an aggregate capacity screen. Door clearance, stacking, floor layout, bracing and cargo compatibility need a separate loading review."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can I enter several carton sizes?",
      "a": "Yes. Add one group for each distinct packed size and per-carton gross weight. Quantities must be whole cartons."
    },
    {
      "q": "Does this calculate an LCL invoice?",
      "a": "No. It does not apply tariff minimums, weight-or-measure rules or local charges. Use a confirmed quote for billing."
    },
    {
      "q": "How should pallets be represented?",
      "a": "Use the final palletized outer envelope and gross weight as each handling unit, without also counting the cartons inside it. Confirm the allocated space includes required clearances."
    },
    {
      "q": "What does remaining capacity mean?",
      "a": "It is allocation minus total volume or weight. A negative result is an excess to resolve before booking; it is not a recommendation to split cartons arbitrarily."
