Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Appreciate that, trying to soak in as much good information like a sponge lol

 

So I’ve got 2 on the front second layer and 1 on the rear second layer; next time I think I’ll try to go for 2 for 2 because I had more winches

 

All ur straps count so u have 7

 

Oh okay I gotcha, I counted the ones on top of the third layer

 

No worries , hammer down . U doing good work sir

 

Thank you, now if only I can get off the side of the road I’ll be just dandy lol

 

Dang it! I shoulda just stayed in my wheel house. I just saw the third tier and didn’t realize it didn’t go the length of the load. Thanks for getting in here and smartening this thread back up!

 

Is it 3 tiers high or just 2 , i always forget .. Me personally i always throw it at 2 if i got a big stack of something

 

Ur good brother , always good to get other eyes on ur work, keeps u on ur toes. That why i like posting in here , maybe somebody could see something i cant

 

Each layer above 2 needs a separate tiedown so if you have 4 layers the minimum needed is 1 on the second, 1 on the third and then 1 on the 4th plus the "penalty" strap for not being against a bulkhead plus the 10 ft rule comes into play. This is for a stack under 8 ft long.
This is a minimum and when I hauled lumber and steel I always doubled the second layer and added at least 1 extra over the top after making minimum on each bundle.
