Examples from practice:

Concrete cases of cargo securing

Several concrete cases of cargo securing are described in the following pages:

20 and 40 containers

20 container with 6 IBCs

Sliding wall freight wagons

Awning truck or swap body

Wide span swap body

Trailer


15/33


20 and 40 containers

Form closure and force closure cargo secu-ring. The center of gravity of loaded cargoshould be in the middle of the cargo unit,

with the goods to be arranged accordingly.

This cargo consists of homogeneous and as-sorted loading units (cardboard boxes andplastic jerry cans).

Transport unit: 20 container respectively 40container.

Appropriateness check is the rst step of pre-paration (checklist in the annex).


16/33


17/33


20 container with 16 IBCs

The cargo consists of 6 IBCs.

Appropriateness check of the 20 containerbefore loading (based on a checklist).

The rst four IBCs are stowed in the middleof the container to the front end (becauseof upper corner ttings). The free spaces

on both sides are lled with air bags.

The next four IBCs are loaded directly tothe rst four, but these IBCs are stowed tothe side walls. The free space in the middle

is lled with air bags. Next, a wooden con-struction consisting of four horizontal andtwo vertical boards is xed between theproles of the side walls.


18/33


The last 8 IBCs are stowed into the contai-ner, followed by backwards securing with awooden construction (consisting of four ho-rizontal and two vertical boards). The smallfree space near the door does not impact

the center of gravity of the loaded cargo,as it keeps within the tolerance limit.

Load securing material:

35 mm thick wooden boards, ready sawnto t the width of the container


19/33


Slidewall wagon

This picture shows a form closure for cargosecuring.

This cargo consists of homogeneous andasorted assorted units with cardboard boxes.

Transport unit:

Slidewall wagon

Appropriateness check of the transport unit isthe rst step of preparation.


20/33


Securing equipment:

Sliding walls and wooden constructions.

Form closure stowage of the pallets and -xing of separation sliding walls into to formequally-sized compartments.

The loading space is now divided into equal-ly-sized compartments. Free spaces insidethese compartments are lled with woodenconstructions.


21/33


Planen-LKW oder Wechselbrcke

This picture shows a form closure as well asa force closure method for cargo securing.The center of gravity of the cargo should be

in the middle of the loading space , with thegoods to be arranged accordingly.

This cargo consists of homogeneous andasorted loading units, cardboard boxes, lat-tice boxes, IBCs and drums.

Transport unit:

Swap body

Appropriateness check is the rst step ofpreparation.


22/33


Securing equipment:

Pallets, wooden constructions, ake boards,lashing straps, steel buckles and one handtackle device.

Preparing the transport unit and xing thestraps alongside the walls. Form closure sto-wage of pallets and lling the free spacesbetween the drums with pallets or woodenconstructions.

Fill the free loading space with pallets.Secure the cargo with horizontal lashings.


23/33


Swap body

Stowage into a swap body. This pictureshows a securing method with blocking barsand pallets.

Securing equipment: Pallets and blockingbars.

Cargo: In each case two drums, in obliqueposition on a CP5 pallet (This is to preventthe drums from projecting over the edge of

the pallet).

Stowage/securing steps:

Fill free space e.g. with pallets or con-

structions so that the cargo can move onlyslightly, as compared with its original positi-on and the walls of the transport unit.


24/33


Transport unit:

Swap body


Fill free space with pallets, so that the cargocan move only slightly, as compared with itsoriginal position and the walls of the trans-port unit.


25/33


Wide span swap body

This picture shows a form closure as well asa force closure method for cargo securing.The center of gravity of the cargo should

be in the middle of the loading space , withthe goods to be arranged accordingly.

Securing equipment:

Pallets, wooden constructions and blocking

bars.

The cargo consists of cardboard boxes anddrums.

Stowage / securing steps:

Form closure stowage and lling freespaces with pallets or wooden construc-tions; blocking bars.


26/33


Transport unit:

Swap body


Fill free space with pallets. Secure the car-go by adjusting the blocking bars.


27/33


Trailer

Cargo securing with lashing straps

Cargo : steel drums

Cargo 2: plastic drums (pails)

Transport unit:

Trailer

On-bord securing equipment


28/33


Pallets as securing equipment

Securing equipment provided by the loa-der: Ratchets, lashing strap (2500 daN)and steel buckles.

Preparing the trailer with lashing straps.This is the restraint system for the rstblock of the cargo. The front wall can ab-sorb 5000 daN.

Loading and securing of the rst block


29/33


The lashing strap should be well-protectedby absorption material (e.g. cardboard).

The pallets are intended to separate therst from the second block and to preventthe strap from falling down.

The second block is being prepared. Theyellow strap is needed for securing thecargo against backwards acceleration. Thewhite strap is used for securing the cargoagainst forwards acceleration. These one-

way straps (2500 daN) are bound twicefrom the left to the right anchor point. Inthis case, the pallets prevent the whitestrap from falling down.


30/33


Positioning the straps

and xing them on both sides. In thisphase the pallets are not yet secured. If ne-cessary, one person should hold them untilthe rst parts of the cargo are loaded.

After loading the rst pallets of the secondblock the white strap is tightened. Forwardsecuring is now completed.

Backward securing is made by the yellowstrap. One end of the strap has an eye, theother end has a clamp. Eye and clamp mayonly be hooked together if they t into each

other.


31/33


Big Bag palletized

Semitrailer with lateral sliding awning wallsand insertion boards.

The vehicle body should be in accordance

with the Guideline Bodies with lateralsliding roof, as a minimum requirement(see Overview of Handbooks and Guideli-nes).

Securing equipment:

Lashing straps Ratchets

Anti friction mats Cardboard

The palletized Big Bags are loaded ushto the front end. The friction coefcient ofBig Bag, pallet and vehicle body must be

equal.

The free spaces on both sides are lled withpallets.

All other pallets are placed in alignment tothe pallets of the rst block.

Running the lashing on the left side.


33/33

This picture shows the lashing which is run-ning on the left side, directly in front of theBig Bag. Cardboard is placed between thelashing and the Big Bag to protect the can-vas.
