A 3.5 t panel van holds 6 half pallets. The 1,100 kg payload stops the load before the floor is full, so stacking adds none. Each pallet is assumed 1.00 m high with its load and 165 kg.

It would not add any. The 1,100 kg payload runs out at 6 pallets, so a second layer adds none.
The counts assume 1.00 m and 165 kg a pallet. At that weight the 1,100 kg payload carries at most 6 pallets. A pallet taller than 1.00 m cannot go two high, because the inside is 2.01 m high. Enter your own sizes in the Loading meter calculator.
6 half pallets in one layer take 1.20 loading metres, 37% of the floor. Stacking adds none here.
