| Abstract |
In the past years more and more attention has been given to securing of loads. Although there a numerous regulations and directives, basic errors often result in insecure loads. This article aimed at improving the knowledge on securing of loads recalls the main legal requirements and directives as well as the factors involved (compensation of the forces involved during the transport, friction strength, securing strength, appropriate transport vehicles). It also provides examples of secure loading in three situations: the transport of palettes of stones, concrete prefabricated elements and construction equipment. |
