| Résumé de l’enjeu | Pourriez-vous me fournir des conseils concernant les exigences de fixation spécifiques relatives aux verrous tournants sur les contenants intermodaux et les châssis ? Dans quelle mesure un verrou tournant peut-il être tourné à partir d'un angle de 90 degrés avant d'être considéré comme ne plus tenir le contenant sur le châssis ? Il y a un certain jeu de torsion, même avec le dispositif de verrouillage secondaire, sur la plupart des verrous tournants. Nombre d'entre eux dépassent légèrement 90 degrés avant d'atteindre le verrouillage secondaire. Bien qu'ils ne soient pas à un angle de 90 degrés, une grande partie du verrou retient toujours le conteneur. |
| Justification ou besoin | Cette demande fait suite à des poursuites intentées par plusieurs organismes d'application de la loi contre des conducteurs dont le conteneur n'était pas sécurisé conformément aux exigences si le verrou (cône) n'était pas à 90 degrés. |
| Demande d’action | J'aimerais avoir des précisions sur l'angle acceptable ou sur la partie du cône qui doit contenir le récipient. |
| Mesures prises par le comité | This issue requested guidance on the securement of Intermodal Containers using an integral locking mechanism. Guidance was specifically being sought as to what degree angle would be required for the locks to be considered in compliance. Violations had been recorded on roadside inspections for locks that were not turned 90 degrees. Fred Kovall reported on discussions that took place in the Cargo Securement Forum regarding this issue. There are numerous different integral locking devices that are used for securing the intermodal containers. Some of the locks do not need to be turned 90 degrees to be secure while others would need to be turned the 90 degrees. Therefore there is no requirement for a lock to be turned 90 degrees as long as the lock is secured and cannot unintentionally become unfastened. Reference was made to CVSA Inspection Bulletin 2011-03 and the inspection guidance provided in that document. Discussion took place as to whether further guidance was needed in the Inspection Guidance subparagraph 2. It was determined that the bulletin should be sufficient in its current state and reference to the different types of locks within the bulletin would never be all inclusive and would make the document quite lengthy. Discussion also took place in regards to the zip tie displayed in the pictures in the Inspection Bulletin. Rolf Vander Zwaag stated that the zip tie is not needed in many cases and is really a securement device for the secondary locking device. If the secondary locking device is not working correctly, then a zip tie might be needed. Committee members agreed with information presented from Cargo Securement and a standard 90 degree turn of the locking device should not be relied on. Instead, the inspector must determine if the lock is secured, based on the type on that particular chassis, and ensure that it cannot become unintentionally unfastened during transportation. |
