The reporter learned today that the General Administration of Market Regulation approved the issuance of the national standard “Technical Specification for Container Iron and Water Intermodal Transport Loading and Safety Inspection”, which coordinates the operating requirements of the two modes of transportation by railway and waterway, uniformly regulates cargo loading and safety inspections for general container iron and water intermodal transport, and lays the foundation for achieving “no opening of the box throughout the process” of container iron and water intermodal transport. In terms of cargo loading, the standard clarifies the basic requirements of “selecting the right box, loading the goods, and stabilizing the center of gravity”, stipulates quantitative requirements such as the total height of the center of gravity, horizontal deviation of the center of gravity, and vertical eccentric mass of the cargo, and refines packing operation requirements such as cargo stacking methods, compression stacking, adjacent stacking, and liner isolation. The standard provides technical requirements for the four types of cargo reinforcement methods for lashing, plugging, supporting, and blocking, and clarifies specific operating specifications such as lashing material selection, lashing angle, inflatable bag filling, box door protection, and wedge fixing to ensure that the goods are stable throughout the process.
