Indirect Tiedowns are tiedowns that pass over or through the cargo, with both ends attached to opposite sides of the vehicle. If using, you can count the full value (100%) of the WLL for those tiedowns.
Direct Tiedowns have one end attached to an anchor point on the vehicle and the other end attached to the cargo, or with both ends attached to the same side of the vehicle. If using, you can only count one-half (50%) of the WLL for those Tiedowns.
The combined working load limit (WLL) of the securement system must be at least one-half the weight of the cargo.
If your Tiedowns are not marked with the WLL, you must use the tables in 49 CFR 393.108.
If yes, use at least 1 Tiedown for every 10ft of cargo, or part thereof. If no, you may need an extra strap.
