    There is a provision in the securement law that you don't need securement every ten feet. Have you ever seen how they secure crane booms?

    Dude needs to lose the attitude. Fairly positive I wouldn't have any customers if I told them that I didn't give a #### about their multi million dollar equipment and I would tie how I wanted even if it means damaging the load.

    I'm pretty sure he doesn't need 2 in the first ten feet (but I do count 4 straps in your pictures) because it's set against his neck which counts as securement. Even if he does only have three straps he's good as long as the piece weighs less than 32k.

    Again lose the attitude and quit pretending your gods answer to trucking.

    $3000 to SC. And I found it on uship :biggrin_255:

    ETA; Since theres a securement war going on, the one strap in the front is just to be sure the access doors don't open during flight.
     
    Sleepy68 and 281ric Thank this.
