Yes, that is correct. I LOVE an x chain on steel plate. I even do it on beams if at all possible.

Looks okay WLL wise, other than that strap over the chain, but I usually added X-chains to the back of the stack as well to keep pressure on the load both ways to stay where it was, as well as one chain over the middle, and made sure straps and chains didn't occupy the same space....but that's my OCD, not yours.
