Abstract
A folding auto platform carton having a lock bottom includes two similar platform sections which fold down with the bottom panels. When the carton is set up, each platform section forms with the underlying bottom panel a box girder which rigidifies the carton. Also abutting walls of the two box girders form a medial reinforcing and supporting rib extending all along the platform which prevents platform sag.
