    Safe Work Instruction

    Load Securing and Restraining - Trailers


    ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 & ISO 45001:2018

    Scope

    The purpose of these safe work instructions is to provide appropriate guidance to AMHEC employees and
    subcontractors to load securing and restraining.

    Prior to Use

     Adequate and sufficient lashing gear for tie downs should be made available.
     Adequate and sufficient dunnage should be made available.
     Weather conditions shall be considered for load stability.
     Inspect all anchor points around the trailer bed.
     Inspect all lashing gear including chains and belts.
     Securement/Lashing gear to be in a good working condition with no defects.
     Ensure the tower light jack stand is securely positioned and properly locked during transportation.

    Process

     Evaluate the type, weight, dimensions, and characteristics of the load before determining the
    appropriate securing methods.
     Select the right tie-downs, straps, chains, or other securing devices based on the load's specifications
    and weight.
     Determine the number and placement of tie-downs based on the load weight and dimensions.
     Dunnage shall be used when applicable.
     Ensure to use latching eyes/anchor points to secure the load as they are designed to provide secure
    attachment points for securing the load.
     Distribute the load evenly across multiple latching eyes within the trailer to maintain stability and
    prevent shifting during transit.
     Use blocking and bracing techniques to prevent movement within the trailer, especially for irregularly
    shaped or loose cargo.
     Ensure to maintain a lower center of gravity and reduce the risk of a top-heavy load.
     Implement cross strapping methods for certain loads to prevent lateral movement. Create an "X"
    pattern with the tie-downs.
     Use edge protectors to prevent tie-downs from damaging the cargo or the trailer's edges/chain.
     Periodically inspect the load during transit to ensure tie-downs remain tight and secure and address
    any issues promptly.
     Ensure all loose parts of the load, such as tarpaulins or items within the cargo, are properly secured.
