Need feedback quick

Yea, but knowing Cluck, he might even have 40 winches

 

I consider having less then 10 straps. Out of Straps.

 

I know my Transcraft has 24. Doonan I think is 26. And my Benson flat has 18 I think.

 

No, it's not legal. It's wood (lumber). For wood, the regs requires a strap every FOUR feet, not 8.

 

Better re-read the regs: http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/regulations/title49/section/393.118

 

While over-securing (if there even IS such a thing) isn't bad, there is nothing in the regs saying a strap is needed every 4' for dressed lumber.

You need to secure each tier in a manner that prevents parts of the bundles from moving. Other than that, strap spacing is consistent with any other load.

 

What is the load rating for a rub rail?

 

I couldn't haul it. I only have 25 straps. ######, gotta buy more!
