Claim:
A pallet system comprising eight support stringers in a four by four matrix, four of the eight stringers having an A pattern and four of the eight stringers having a B pattern, the four by four matrix including four support stringers aligned in an A-B-B-A pattern and four support stringers aligned in a B-A-A-B pattern, wherein each support stringer is interlocked with four other support stringers along the length of each support stringer, thereby defining four joints along the length of each support stringer, a first support stringer interlocking with a second support stringer from either an upper side or a lower side of the first support stringer, the first support stringer interlocking with a third support stringer from the other of the upper side or the lower side of the first support stringer, the upper side of the first support stringer and the lower side of the first support stringer being opposed to one another, the eight support stringers thereby being interwoven with one another, each support stringer including a first terminus and a second opposite terminus, the first and second opposite termini extending beyond all joints along the length of each support stringer; wherein the termini of each support stringer define the perimeter of said pallet system.
