• Phạm vi áp dụng / Scope of standard: 1.1 This guide covers information on flat strapping materials (steel or nonmetallic) for the prospective user wanting initial guidance in selecting a strapping material and applied configuration for use in packaging (closing, reinforcing, baling, unitizing, or palletizing) and loading (load unitization and securement to transport vehicle) applications. The use applies to handling, securement, storage, and distribution systems. 1.2 Carrier associations have established certain packaging and loading requirements that in some cases specify a type of strap, the minimum size or strength, or both, and type of joint or seal, or both, that must be used for certain types of shipments or under certain conditions. Users should consult with their carriers initially to determine if there are applicable, published requirements. Individual carriers may establish their own requirements (see 2.2). 1.3 Limitations - This guide is not intended to give specific information as to how strapping must be used in any particular packaging or loading situation. Rather it is intended to be informational in nature and is offered as a starting point for testing. The need for thorough user testing is to be emphasized as is a review of pertinent regulations that can influence the selection of sizes, types, and possibly, application methods. 1.4 The sections in this guide appear in the following order: Section Scope 1 Referenced Documents 2 Terminology 3 Significance and Use 4 Safety Hazards 5General Considerations: Properties of Strap Types 6 General Uses 7 Strap Tension 8Packaging Design: Distribution 9 Package Configuration10 Strap Selection11Joining Methods and Properties Joint Methods and Properties (except loop joint)12 Loop Joint and Seal Properties13Coatings: Strap Coatings and Purposes14Application: Equipment for Strap Application15 Strap Application16Testing and Evaluation: Testing and Developing Final Package Design17 Evaluation of Strap Failure18 Keywords19Supplementary GuidelineS11.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard.
