WHY CONTAINER SECURING?

Slide 4 9/24/2010
 Good reasons to secure the containers

The container is a weak box loaded with heavy cargo inside

and above.
The mass of the cargo will be accelerated by the movements
of the ship as response of the sea conditons.
Vertical acceleration up to 1,5 x mass
Transversal acceleration up to 0,7 x mass
Longitudinal acceleration up to 0,4 x mass

Additionally wind and green sea is loaded to the containers in

exposed areas.
The container is the weakest link in the lashing chain!

Slide 5 9/24/2010
Typical damages of containers (1)
Racking

Racking is the deformation of the container end

or side frame resulting from transversal or
longitudinal forces.

ISO container racking limit nominally 150kN

Horizontal supports for example, diagonal

lashings help to shift the force to deck.

Slide 6 9/24/2010
Typical damages of containers (2)

Toppling

Tendency of a container to pivot on its

bottom edge and to overturn by rolling
motions of the ship.

Twist locks with SWL of 250 kN are used to

hold containers.

Lashings applied help to keep containers

down.

Slide 7 9/24/2010
Typical damages of containers (3)

Container collapse

Container collapse results from

exceeded allowable compression on
the container corner posts or corner
castings.
Allowed corner post compression abt
850 kN and corner castings 1000 kN

Limiting stack weight, high number of

lashings increase compression.

Slide 8 9/24/2010
Typical damages of containers (4)
Local structural failure

Is the separation of structural

components of a container.

The most common type involves the

separation of the corner casting and
end of side rails.

Lashing load limits on a corner casting

typically 150kN horizontally and 300
kN vertically should be adhered to in
order to prevent this type of failure.

Lashings and locks between containers
