Which category uses drums whose body is described as being made from multiple plies of heavy paper or fiberboard without corrugations?

• A. Plywood Drums
• B. Fiber Drums
• C. Steel Drums
• D. Metal Drums

Answer: (B)

The key idea is identifying drum body materials and how they’re built. When a drum is described as being made from multiple plies of heavy paper or fiberboard without corrugations, that matches fiber drums. This construction uses several layers of dense fiberboard to achieve strength without using wood sheets or metal, resulting in a lighter container that still can handle typical packing demands. The absence of corrugation distinguishes them from corrugated fiberboard drums, which rely on the wavy inner layer for strength. The other options refer to different materials: plywood drums use wood veneer for the body, while steel or metal drums are made from metal, not paper-based fiberboard.
