4.   Load distribution with timber or steel beams
		4.1 Section modules and permissible loads
		4.2 Prevailing load case
		4.3 Beam-diagrams
	Timber beams or steel beams, which are used for load distribution when stowing coils into containers, must have such properties that they can resist the expected loads during transport by road, rail and sea as well as during handling. Important are the vertical accelerations, which may add up to ±1 g in unfavourable stowage positions on sea-going vessels (in addition to the gravity acceleration).
