Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 16049 aims to provide general utilization
guidelines and calculation methods adequate to guarantee the
effectiveness and ultimate load strength of tie-down/lashing
arrangements performed to restrain cargo on board civil transport
aircraft during flight;
a) cargo loaded and tied down onto airworthiness approved air
cargo pallets, themselves restrained into aircraft lower deck or
main deck or upper deck cargo systems meeting the restraint
requirements of air cargo pallets approved in accordance with ISO
8097, (NAS3610) or ISO /PAS 21100, or
b) additional tie-down on aircraft structure when necessitated
by pallet maximum gross mass or centre of gravity limits, or
c) non-unitized individual pieces of cargo, or pieces of cargo
placed onto an unrestrained ("floating") pallet into either lower
deck, main deck or upper deck containerized cargo compartments of
an aircraft, or
d) individual pieces of load loaded in non-containerized (bulk
loaded) baggage or cargo compartments.
This part of ISO 16049 applies to cargo tie-down/lashing
arrangements using exclusively air cargo restraint straps
conforming to ISO 16049-1. Its general recommendations may also be
used for tie-won arrangements using other means (e.g. steel cables,
rope, other types of straps), but under the user's responsibility
as to their adequacy and the strength calculations required.
NOTE 1 Where tie-down is performed onto aircraft structure as
per 1.1 b) or c), additional restrictions can be stated in the
aircraft's Authority approved Weight and Balance Manual.
NOTE 2 The use of chains or other rigid devices for tie-down
onto civil transport aircraft floor tracks is not part of the scope
of this part of ISO 16049, since it is not recommended due to the
possibility of generating excessive stresses in the aircraft
structure, except where explicitly approved in the manufacturer's
Authority approved Weight and Balance Manual.
This part of ISO 16049 aims to provide industry recognized means
of complying with Airworthiness Authorities general regulations
applicable to load securing on board civil transport aircraft (see
14 CFR Part 25 and EASA CS-25), and aircraft manufacturers
Authority approved Weight and Balance Manuals for each aircraft
type as specified therein. It is not the intent of this part of ISO
16049 to specify when restraint straps should be used, but how they
should be used. It does not, under any circumstance, supersede the
requirements of any of the above documents that take precedence at
all times.
