Cargo restraint system and method with enhanced peel strength

摘要

A cargo restraint system and method with enhanced peel strength characteristics the restraint system including laminated load restraining strips (30) with a layer of adhesive (94) to adhere the restraining strip to a container wall surface (32) having a thickness of approximately greater than 1.6 and less than 3.0 millimeters. The load restraint method for securing cargo (36) within transport containers (20) wherein an angle ¸ of attachment between a side wall of a container (32) and a reinforcing strip (30) of material attached to the side wall is maintained at approximately 15 degrees or less in accordance with the formula B‰¤ cot ¸ €¢ A , where ¸ is the angle formed between an exterior surface of said load restraining strip (30) and an interior plane of the lateral wall surface (32) of the transport container (20). "A" is the distance from a front edge (230) of a load to an adjacent side wall (32) and "B" is the distance along the wall (32) of the container (20) behind the point of contact (232) of the restraining strip (30) with an edge (230) of the load (36) to be restrained.
