The FHWA is amending the cargo securement requirements of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) to adopt the use of working load limits in specifying the minimum strength of cargo securement devices. The amendment requires that the aggregate working load limit of the tiedown assemblies used to secure an article against movement in any direction be at least \1/2\ times the weight of the article secured. In addition, a table of working load limits is being included in the FMCSRs to provide motor carriers with a means of determining the number of tiedown assemblies required. It is the intent of this final rule to make the tiedown requirements easier to understand, use, and enforce. This action is in response to a petition from the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA).
