Zorluk: KolayCargo Securement: Tie-Down Rules and WLL

A driver is transporting a single bundle of structural lumber that is 24 feet long on a flatbed trailer. Under federal cargo securement rules, what is the minimum number of tie-downs required to secure this cargo based on its length alone?

  1. A
    1 tie-down
  2. B
    2 tie-downs
  3. 3 tie-downsCevap
  4. D
    4 tie-downs

Cevap

3 tie-downs
Federal cargo securement rules require a minimum of one tie-down for every 10 feet of cargo length, and one additional tie-down for any remaining fraction of 10 feet. A 24-foot load spans two full 10-foot increments plus a 4-foot fraction, requiring a total of 3 tie-downs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the federal tie-down requirement based on cargo length.
Cargo requires at least one tie-down for every 10 feet of length, plus an additional tie-down for any remaining fraction of 10 feet.
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) cargo securement standards establish minimum tie-down counts to prevent load movement.
2
Calculate the number of tie-downs required for a 24-foot article.
The first 20 feet requires 2 tie-downs (1 per 10 feet), and the remaining 4 feet constitutes a fraction requiring 1 additional tie-down, totaling 3 tie-downs.
Any length extending past an even 10-foot increment mandates an extra tie-down.

Anahtar Kavram

Federal cargo securement rules mandate a minimum of one tie-down for every 10 feet of cargo length, plus one tie-down for any remaining fraction of 10 feet.
