1 Introduction 2 Scope
The safe and damage free transport of cargoes is of vital importance The guide can be used to determine the cargo weight that can be secured
for the safety of all persons concerned in the logistic chain and for the for transport using Cordlash systems for transport by road, rail (without
protection of our environment. shunting) and unrestricted i.e. all sea areas.
The Cordlash Quick lashing Guide is designed to enable users of Cordlash All calculations are based on the least favourable combinations of the
one-way cargo securing systems to calculate the number of lashings following acceleration/g forces:
required to secure a cargo adequately. It will also allow those controlling

The lowest of the sliding / tipping cargo weights should be taken
when calculating the number of lashings required to secure the cargo
adequately.
The cargo weight secured by using Cordlash systems can be combined with
securing weights achieved by using blocking and bracing to determine the
total amount of securing material required.

6 How to determine the number of Cordlash systems required
Example 1: Top-over lashing • cargo weight secured by one lashing system using CT40 tensioner at H/L
ration 0.55 = 30400 lb
Cargo : machine in crate, weight 8800 lb, dimensions 13’ x 6.6’
x 7.2’ (LxWxH) Securing against tipping S (sideways):
CTU : 20’ container • H/B ratio = 7.2 / 6.6 = 1.1
Securing method : top-over lashing (buckle-hook – buckle-hook) • Using the nearest higher ratio 1.2
Lashing system : Cordlash 105 / 2x CBH 10 • 1 crate = 1 row
Tensioner : CT 40 • no risk of tipping
Friction : Cordstrap anti-slip mat 0.3” used µ (static) = 0.6
The lowest weight that can be secured against sliding and tipping by one
As a top-over method is used to secure the cargo, see section 15, table 15.1 lashing system determined above = 1830 lb.
(CT 40 tensioner).
The total number of lashings required is calculated by dividing the actual cargo
Securing against sliding F/B (forward/backward): weight by 1830 lb.
• cargo weight secured by one lashing system using CT40 tensioner at µ = 0.6
is 1830 lb Actual cargo weight 8800 lb / 1830 lb = 4.81 or rounded up 5 top-over lashings.
Securing against sliding S (sideways): The cargo can therefore be secured against sliding and tipping F/B/S by using
• cargo weight secured by one lashing system using CT40 tensioner at µ = 0.6 5 top-over lashing systems Cordlash 105 / 2 x CBH 10 tensioned with a CT 40
is 3640 lb tensioner.
Securing against tipping F/B (forward/backward):
• H/L ratio = 7.2” / 13” = 0.55
• Using the nearest higher ratio 0.6, one lashing system will prevent 30400 lb
from tipping
8 9
Example 2: Loop lashing Securing against tipping S (sideways):
• H/B ratio = 6.6’ / 6.6’ = 1.0.
Cargo: steel tank, weight 44000 lb, dimensions 16.4’ x 6.6’ x 6.6’ • Section 15, table 15.4 shows that there is no risk of tipping for 1 row at H/B
(LxWxH) ratio 1.0
CTU: 20’ flat / 11240 lb lashing points
Securing method: S = loop lashing, F/B = timber beam blocking to flat The lowest weight that can be secured against sliding and tipping by one loop
bulkheads lashing pair determined above = 9790 lb.
Lashing system: Cordlash 200 / Dynablock 12
Tensioner: CT 40 PN pneumatic tensioner The total number of lashings required is calculated by dividing the actual cargo
Friction: steel on wood µ = 0.5 (however on open CTU e.g. flat, only weight by 9790 lb.
µ = 0.3 may be used!)
Actual cargo weight 44000 lb / 9790 lb = 4.5 or rounded up 5 loop lashing pairs.
As a loop lashing method is used to secure the cargo, refer to Section 14, table
14.5 (Cordlash 200) for sliding and section 15, table 15.4 (CT 40 PN tensioner) The cargo can therefore be secured against sliding and tipping F/B/S by using 5
for tipping loop lashing pairs Cordlash 200 / Dynablock 12 / CT 40 PN tensioner. Note that
the cargo should be blocked F/B.
Securing against sliding F/B (forward/backward):
• not applicable as cargo is secured F/B by blocking to flat bulkheads
Securing against sliding S (sideways):
• cargo weight secured by one lashing pair at µ = 0.3 is 9790 lb
Securing against tipping F/B (forward/backward):
• not applicable as cargo is secured F/B by blocking to flat bulkheads

Example 3: Spring lashing Securing against sliding S (sideways):
• By use of Cordstrap dunnage bags of sufficient strength, there is no risk
Cargo: 3 crates, weight per crate 7480 lb, dimensions 6.2’ x 6.6’ x sliding sideways.
7.2’ (LxWxH)
CTU: 20’ container Securing against tipping F/B (forward/backward):
Securing method: forward: against bulkhead container • H/L ratio = 7.2’ / 6.2’ = 1.16
backward: spring lashing • Using the nearest higher ratio 1.2 in section 14, table 14.3 one spring lashing
sideways: Cordstrap dunnage bags Cordlash 105 / Dynablock 10 per crate will prevent 54480 lb from tipping
Securing system: Cordlash 105 / Dynablock 10 / CT 40 tensioner • To prevent overstressing the container lashing points (see note on left
Friction: Cordstrap anti-slip mat 8 mm used (µ static = 0.6) page) it is recommended to use only 50% of the cargo weight that can be
prevented from tipping = 27240 lb.
As a spring lashing is used to secure the cargo, refer to Section 14,
table 14.3. Securing against tipping S (sideways):
• By use of Cordstrap dunnage bags of sufficient strength, there is no risk
Securing against sliding F/B (forward/backward): tipping sideways.
• Cargo weight for one spring lashing system type Cordlash 105 / Dynablock 10

ration 0.55 = 30400 lb

Cargo : machine in crate, weight 8800 lb, dimensions 13’ x 6.6’

x 7.2’ (LxWxH) Securing against tipping S (sideways):

CTU : 20’ container • H/B ratio = 7.2 / 6.6 = 1.1

Lashing system : Cordlash 105 / 2x CBH 10 • 1 crate = 1 row

Tensioner : CT 40 • no risk of tipping

Friction : Cordstrap anti-slip mat 0.3” used µ (static) = 0.6

Securing against sliding F/B (forward/backward): weight by 1830 lb.

Securing against tipping F/B (forward/backward):

• H/L ratio = 7.2” / 13” = 0.55

Example 2: Loop lashing Securing against tipping S (sideways):

• H/B ratio = 6.6’ / 6.6’ = 1.0.

(LxWxH) ratio 1.0

CTU: 20’ flat / 11240 lb lashing points

Lashing system: Cordlash 200 / Dynablock 12

the cargo should be blocked F/B.

Securing against sliding F/B (forward/backward):

• not applicable as cargo is secured F/B by blocking to ﬂat bulkheads

Securing against sliding S (sideways):

• cargo weight secured by one lashing pair at µ = 0.3 is 9790 lb

Securing against tipping F/B (forward/backward):

• not applicable as cargo is secured F/B by blocking to ﬂat bulkheads

Example 3: Spring lashing Securing against sliding S (sideways):

• By use of Cordstrap dunnage bags of sufﬁcient strength, there is no risk

CTU: 20’ container Securing against tipping F/B (forward/backward):

prevented from tipping = 27240 lb.

As a spring lashing is used to secure the cargo, refer to Section 14,

table 14.3. Securing against tipping S (sideways):

• By use of Cordstrap dunnage bags of sufﬁcient strength, there is no risk

Securing against sliding F/B (forward/backward): tipping sideways.
