LASHING CALCULATION

Acceleration Forces on Max Ground Slope:

F = (Wl + Wa) * sin ( Mgl ) = 8.90 mTon
N = (Wl + Wa) * cos ( Mgl ) = 169.77 mTon
R1 = (((Wl + Wa) * a ) / g) + F - ( Mu * N ) = -16.4 mTon
C1 = R1 / cc ( If R1 negative, no chains required ) = 0 chain(s) required in front direction

Decceleration Forces on Max Ground Slope:

F = (Wl + Wa) * sin ( Mgl ) = 8.90 mTon
N = (Wl + Wa) * cos ( Mgl ) = 169.77 mTon
R2 = (((Wl + Wa) * d ) / g) + F - ( Mu * N ) = 18.3 mTon
C2 = R2 / cc ( If R2 negative, no chains required ) = 4 chain(s) required in rear direction

Chains required for lashing: = C1 + C2 4 chain(s) required

Single system, load and trailer (Y/N)? : Y = Wt / cc 12 chain(s) required

GROUND BEARING PRESSURE CALCULATION

Weight Trailer + Load + Add. Weight = Wtot = 225.0 mTon

Load / line 225.0 mTon over 12 Lines = 18.8 mTon

Load / axle 225.0 mTon over 24 Axles = 9.4 mTon
Load / tyre 225.0 mTon over 48 Tyres = 4.7 mTon
Load / width of tire 4.7 mTon over 12 inch = 0.39 mTon/inch = 860.4 lbs/inch

Note 1: General situation, drawing does not adapt to input- and calculated values.
Note 2: Group A and B should have less axles than Group C and D if need be.
Note 3: In case of 3-point suspension Group B = 0.

NOTES:

The transverse transporter gradient will be kept within +4 and -4 degrees with the road by the transporter operator.
Calculations are based on transporter driving in normal mode, not in transverse mode.
All assumptions are highly estimated, and therefor not allways according to the drawings.
Road gradient is included in lashing and structural calculation but not in hydraulics calculation.
