(One lashing / 4 tonnes of cargo to<br />
prevent tipping and wandering)<br />

• Static friction s = 0.5<br />
• Acceleration factor c y = 0.5<br />
• Lashing force F T = S TF<br />
• K-factor k = 2<br />
• Safety factor f s = 1.0<br />
• Internal friction considered<br />

36 top over lashings<br />
(five lashings/section when loaded in<br />
two layers to prevent sliding and<br />
tipping, and one lashing/section when<br />
loaded in one layer to prevent sliding)<br />
Reasons for the difference:<br />
• Dynamic friction µ d = 0.7 s= 0.35<br />
• Acceleration factor c y = 0.5 (sliding)<br />
and c y = 0.7 (tipping)<br />
• Lashing force F T = S TF<br />
• K-factor k = 1.5<br />
• Safety factor f s = 1.0<br />
• No instructions for internal friction<br />
