From The CDL Manual
The sum of the working load limits from all tiedowns must be at least 50% of the weight of the coils.
- At least one indirect tiedown attached side-to-side over the eye of the coil;
- At least one direct tiedown towards both the front and the rear of the load.
- At least one indirect tiedown attached diagonally from the right side of the vehicle, across the eye of the coil, to the left side of the vehicle;
- At least one indirect tiedown attached diagonally from the left side of the vehicle, across the eye of the coil, to the right side of the vehicle;
From The CDL Manual
Tiedowns must be arranged in the following manner to prevent the coils from tipping in the forward, rearward and side-to-side (lateral) directions:
- At least one indirect tiedown attached diagonally from the left side of the vehicle, across the eye of the coil, to the right side of the vehicle;
- At least one indirect tiedown attached diagonally from the right side of the vehicle, across the eye of the coil, to the left side of the vehicle;
- At least one indirect tiedown attached side-to-side over the eye of the coil;

Step #2 and #3: Prevent the Coil from Forward and rearward Movement
At least one direct tiedown is required through its eye, restricting forward motion.
At least one direct tiedown is required through its eye, restricting rearward motion.
- 90 degrees.
- 180 degrees.
- 30 degrees.
- 45 degrees.
From The CDL Manual
At least one direct tiedown against the front of the row of coils, restraining against forward motion, and if practicable, making an angle 45 degrees or less with the floor.
At least one direct tiedown against the rear of the row of coils, restraining against rearward motion, and if practicable, making an angle 45 degrees or less with the floor.
- One direct tiedown through its eye, restricting rearward motion.
- At least one indirect tiedown over the top.
- Attaching direct tiedowns diagonally through the eye of a coil to form an X-pattern when viewed from above.
- Attaching direct tiedowns diagonally through the eye of a coil.
From The CDL Manual
Attaching direct tiedowns diagonally through the eye of a coil to form an X-pattern when viewed from above the vehicle is prohibited.
- Support the coil above the deck.
- Attach at least one tiedown through the eye diagonally each way.
- These are all part of method #1.
- Attach at least one indirect tiedown side-to-side over the top.
From The CDL Manual
Step #1: Support the coil above the deck to prevent the coil from rolling.
Step #2: Attach at least one direct tiedown on each diagonal through the eye of the coil making an angle not more than 45 degrees with the floor of the vehicle when viewed from the side.
Attach at least one indirect tiedown side-to-side over the top of the coil.
Use blocking or friction mats to prevent forward movement.
- Two
- Four
- It depends on the size of the coils.
- One
From The CDL Manual
Step #2:
Attach at least two direct tiedowns over each coil or side-by-side row.
- Two indirect tiedowns over the front and rear parts of the coil.
- At least one indirect tiedown side-to-side over the top of the coil.
- One direct tiedown on each diagonal through the eye of the coil
- Two direct tiedowns on either side straight through the eye.
From The CDL Manual
Securement Option #2:
Same as Option #1, except the direct tiedowns are straight instead of diagonal.
- The summation of the working load limits or restraining capacity of all devices used to secure an article on a vehicle.
- The summation of 50% of the working load limits or restraining capacity of all devices used to secure an article on a vehicle.
- 50% of the maximum load that may be applied to a component of a cargo securement system during normal service, usually assigned by the manufacturer of the component.
- The maximum load that may be applied to a component of a cargo securement system during normal service, usually assigned by the manufacturer of the component.
From The CDL Manual
Aggregate Working Load Limit:
The summation of the working load limits or restraining capacity of all devices used to secure an article on a vehicle.
- Rub rail.
- Cab shield.

- Headboard.
From The CDL Manual
Headboard:
A vertical barrier across the front of the deck of a vehicle to prevent forward movement of cargo.

- Place against or around an article to prevent horizontal movement of the article.
- Attach a tiedown to.
- Provide greater friction between an article and the vehicle.

- The forward force (80% of the cargo weight) represents braking while driving straight ahead.
- The rearward force (50% of the cargo weight) represents vehicle acceleration or braking in reverse.
- The side-to-side or lateral force (50% of the cargo weight) represents traveling on a curve, ramp or changing lanes.
- The vertical force (20% of the cargo weight)) represents cargo vibration during transport. This requirement is satisfied when the cargo is "Fully Contained"
