Acceleration forces during transport

1.0 G refers to the weight force of the load. The forces that occur during the various movements of the load can reach up to 80 % of this value (truck transport). The friction force which together with the securing force prevents the load from slipping can be increased considerably by using non-slip mats.

A good non-slip mat can warrant up to 60 % and more of the load securing force. However, it is still not possible to dispense completely with lashing straps and other fixing equipment.
