What are the precautions while loading Steel coils on ships ?

  • create frictional resistance
  • spread the load.
  • Always use sufficient strips of dunnage to avoid exceeding the tank top acceptable point load.
  • As the height of a stow increases so too does the requirement for additional strips of dunnage.
  • avoid deformation of the cargo, especially when loading steel plate, coils and railway lines
  • protect steel from moisture
  • reduce possible movement within a stow, especially when carrying steel plate or slabs
