A shipping pallet comprised of at least one layer of substantially parallel, structural deck boards attached to a plurality of stringers is disclosed. The layer of deck boards defines a three-dimensional, substantially rectilinear deck zone that is defined by a top plane, a bottom plane, and four side-edge planes. The pallet includes at least one non-structural member that carries a readable device within the deck zone of a pallet, in the space between two structural deck boards. The non-structural member has a Modulus of Elasticity and Modulus of Rupture that are both below that of the strongest deck board in the deck zone in which the non-structural member is mounted.
