You want to transport a pallet on the loading platform of your truck that stands form-fit against the front wall of the body. What force is to be assumed as the necessary securing force for load securing?

50% of the weight force of the load minus the friction force of the load on the loading platform, if the front wall can absorb the force occurring during braking

80% of the weight force of the load minus the weight of the load

50% of the weight force of the load minus the friction force of the load on the loading platform, if the front wall cannot absorb the force occurring during braking

80% of the weight force of the load minus the friction force of the load on the loading platform, if the front wall cannot absorb the force occurring during braking

Which specifications on the label of a lashing strap are significant for tie-down lashing?

The length

The pretensioning force that can be used in the strap for tie-down lashing (STF)

The hand force of the user (SHF)

The maximum load capacity of the lashing strap with straight pull (LC)

Category: Class C -4- Loading, Cargo Securing - Level 5

How do you calculate the friction force of the load on the loading platform of a truck?

Double the weight force of the load times the friction coefficient between load and loading platform

Half the weight force of the load times the friction coefficient between load and loading platform

The weight force of the load times the friction coefficient between load and loading platform

The friction force is always equal to the weight force of the load

8 / 15

Category: Class C -4- Loading, Cargo Securing - Level 5

What circumstances favor the tipping of a truck?

A low overall center of gravity of truck and load

If the load cannot be fixed, for example when transporting animals

If the steering wheel is jerked during heavy braking at the same time

A high overall center of gravity of truck and load

You want to load a truck of vehicle class N3. This truck has lashing points certified according to EN 12640. What maximum permissible load of the lashing points is then guaranteed?

Maximum 800 kg if the truck has no more than 18 t maximum permissible total weight

In any case at least 2,000 kg

In any case at least 3,500 kg

Maximum 1,000 kg if the truck has more than 18 t maximum permissible total weight

You are driving a refrigerated truck with 18 t maximum permissible total weight, in which frozen beef halves are transported hanging from the ceiling. Why is the tipping danger particularly great?

Because the beef halves can start swinging. This causes a strong change in the center of gravity position

Because the beef halves can start swinging. This, in combination with other forces acting transverse to the direction of travel, particularly easily causes the tipping edge to be exceeded

Because the beef halves expand when the temperature drops

Because the maximum permissible payload of the truck can be exceeded particularly easily when the temperature drops

You are driving a truck with a tank body. What problems must be considered when driving?

With a partially loaded tank, dangerous surge movements in the longitudinal direction can occur, especially when braking

With a partially loaded tank, dangerous surge movements in the transverse direction can occur, especially when cornering

With an empty tank, the tank can tear off the vehicle frame when accelerating

With a fully loaded tank, strong forces in the transverse direction occur when braking due to the surge movements

You want to load a truck of vehicle class N2. This truck has lashing points certified according to EN 12640. What maximum permissible load of the lashing points is then guaranteed?

In any case at least 3,500 kg

1,000 kg if the truck has more than 7.5 t maximum permissible total weight

800 kg if the truck has no more than 7.5 t maximum permissible total weight

In any case at least 2,000 kg

You are driving a truck with a tank body that has a volume of 2,000 liters. The tank is filled with 1,000 liters of water. What must you expect if you brake this truck hard?

The truck is pushed forward by the surge effect that sets in after braking

The truck is pushed backward by the surge effect that sets in after braking

The truck is pushed sideways by the surge effect that sets in after braking

Due to the surge effect that sets in after braking, it is necessary to continue pressing the brake pedal after stopping
