ATA Practical Cargo Securement:

Guidelines for Drivers, Carriers and Shippers
 
Need to know how to properly secure your loads to stay compliant and fine-free? This guidebook is based on the North American Cargo Securement Standards which served as the model for the regulations adopted by the United States  (49 CFR Parts 392 and 393) and Canada (NSC Standard #10). It is an easy-to-read tool with diagrams, pictures and charts covering basic principles, preparing the cargo for transport, vehicle requirements for vans and flatbeds, cargo tiedowns, loading and securing all types of freight, inspecting cargo, and enforcement and compliance. Distributed by ATA and the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA), this is the same tool used by law enforcement.
 
This is a “MUST HAVE” operation tool for every driver, safety director and shipper.
