Summary: For a long time, some freight vehicles, for the sake of convenience, have not covered their cargo with tarpaulins when transporting items that are easily spilled or scattered. This often leads to cargo loss and dust, causing air and road pollution, affecting the road environment, hindering traffic safety, and easily causing road traffic accidents.

The tarpaulin is equipped with fixed bandages on both sides, with a spacing of no more than 1.5 meters. The high-sided truck rain cover, side cloth, and tail are covered with standard tarpaulins, and the front and rear ends are equipped with tightening ropes. (Crosslinking agent used in PE tarpaulin)

When transporting goods or fine-grained goods such as sand and soil that are easily scattered or lost, the load shall not exceed the height of the carriage. For caged trucks, canvas or geotextiles shall be added to the four sides inside the carriage to prevent cargo leakage and spillage. (Crosslinking agent used in PE tarpaulin)

The tarpaulin is covered longitudinally, with a minimum of 50 centimeters of overhang on both sides. For caged trucks, ensure that the cage is covered and the bandage is fixed under the trough. The front and rear ends should overhang as much as possible to meet the needs of airtight covering. After the cargo is tightly packed and pressed at the four corners above the trough, tighten the tightening rope, and fix the rope in an "X" shape at the front and rear of the trough without obstructing the vehicle number. (Crosslinking agent used in PE tarpaulin)

To prevent cargo spillage and scattering during transportation due to loose bandages or ropes, long-distance trucks are encouraged to strengthen reinforcement by increasing the density of knots or covering "D"-shaped or "diamond"-shaped rope nets. (Crosslinking agent used in PE tarpaulin)

To ensure that the tarpaulin bandages or ropes are firm and tight, it is recommended to fix them with hooks or the trough's built-in tightening device. Do not use elastic ropes for binding. (Crosslinking agent used in PE tarpaulin)

After covering, the tarpaulin must be flat and tight, with symmetrical overhang at the front and rear, left and right sides around the trough, the vehicle number exposed, the knots secure, the cover tight, and the cargo not exposed or spilled. (Crosslinking agent used in PE tarpaulin)

Common problems and consequences of non-standard tarpaulin covering:

1. Tarpaulin not covered with rope net. Consequence: Tarpaulin blown away by wind.

2. Tarpaulin not covered flat. Consequence: Tarpaulin blown open by wind.

3. Tarpaulin or rope net damaged and fallen. Consequence: Tarpaulin blown open by wind, cargo loss, even steel tarpaulin cannot withstand this.

4. Tarpaulin waist rope broken. Consequence: Tarpaulin blown away by wind; danger of rope falling and damaging equipment, possibly causing train to stop in section.

5. Tarpaulin lacking end ropes and corner ropes. Consequence: Tarpaulin blown open by wind.

6. Tarpaulin ropes improperly tied. Consequence: Tarpaulin blown away by wind, tarpaulin waist rope dragging on the ground, lifting the car hook, lifting the open car middle door lower latch.

7. Tarpaulin water accumulation. Consequence: Tarpaulin ropes broken, tarpaulin slipped, cargo exposed, causing cargo loss.
