The following table presents typical transport loadings in g.
Force Direction | Road | Rail | Barge | Ocean |
---|---|---|---|---|
Lateral | 0.5 | 1.0 | 0.95 | 1.0 |
Longitudinal | 1.0 | 1.5 | 1.5 | 1.5 |
Vertical | 1.5 | 2.0 | 1.3 | 1.5 |
Some customers are more specific when calculating barge or ocean loadings. The following table can assist in those calculations.
