This MDSS - Slowstop Guarding Systems Surface Mount Bollard is a beast. These have been installed at a truck stop to prevent damage to fuel tank lids. 3 years on you can see they are getting impacted with no damage to the concrete which is the typical issue with surface mounted bollards. Rated to take up to a 35T impact. Stopping power is 25,800 joules and 147.3 kN https://lnkd.in/gRK24-uc

The number one reason rack systems fail is damage from forklift impact. That damage is not always visible. Rack systems should be routinely inspected for structural integrity, damaged uprights, alignment, overloading and more. And, rack systems need protection. #RackSentry

If you don't think it's safe, it probably isn't. Inspect rack systems regularly for damage from forklift hits. Repeated impact can damage the structural integrity of the rack system and that can lead to rack collapse. Rack protection minimizes impact damage. #RackSentry #CONTOUR

When hauling pipe and similar loads, the top of the load must be "crowned". In other words, all items need a barrier to vertical movement. This picture shows a crowned pipe load: each joint is prevented from vertical movement by the straps. If there was not enough pipe to complete the top layer, though, the gaps could lead to an out-of-service condition since they could possibly move vertically. If there are not enough items to complete the top layer, the best practice is to stop at the last complete layer and secure the load, then add another layer of dunnage and secure the additional items separately. --- There are various resources to consult for the cargo securement rules and industry best practices.

### The Hidden Danger of Faulty Fasteners in Railings. When it comes to railings, we often overlook the importance of the fasteners that secure them to their chassis. Yet, these small components are critical for ensuring safety and stability. Faulty fasteners can lead to severe consequences, including complete railing failure. Why Fasteners Matter:- 1:- Corrosion: Exposure to the elements can cause rust, weakening the fasteners over time. 2:- Improper Installation:- Incorrectly installed fasteners can fail under stress. 3:- Material Compatibility:- Using the wrong type of fasteners can accelerate wear and lead to failure. Real-World Consequences:- The images that highlight the dangers of fastener failure. Ensuring Safety- 1-Use high-quality, rust-resistant fasteners. 2-Conduct regular inspections and maintenance. 3-Ensure professional installation. Don't let a small oversight lead to a big accident. Check your railings today to ensure they're secure and safe. Share this post to raise awareness about the importance of proper fasteners!!!
