This Part, entitled "Securement of Steel Coils and Other
				Objects on Flatbed Vehicles," shall be known as Title 92, Chapter 1, Subchapter
				f, (Highways), Part 558 of the Illinois Department of Transportation Rules and
				Regulations (92 Ill. Adm. Code 558).
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 558 - SECUREMENT OF STEEL COILS AND OTHER OBJECTS ON FLATBED VEHICLES › Section 558.30 - Scope

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
This Part establishes regulations for protection against the
				shifting or falling of steel coils or other objects being transported on
				flatbed vehicles, which for the purposes of this rule are defined as all single
				vehicles having a flatbed and/or all combinations of vehicles that include one
				or more vehicles having a flatbed and are comprised of trucks, truck tractors,
				semitrailers and/or trailers. This Part applies to all persons operating
				flatbed vehicles on any highway in this State, provided, however, this Part
				does not apply to the transportation of hazardous materials on flatbed vehicles
				where such transportation is subject to regulation under the Illinois Hazardous
				Materials Act or the regulations pursuant thereto.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 558 - SECUREMENT OF STEEL COILS AND OTHER OBJECTS ON FLATBED VEHICLES › Section 558.40 - Regulations for Securing Cargo

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
Each flatbed vehicle on which objects meeting the limits
				indicated in paragraph (d) or (e) of this section are being transported must be
				equipped with devices providing protection against shifting or falling cargo.
				These devices must meet the requirements of at least one of the following
				paragraphs - (a), (b), (c), or (d) - and, in addition, must conform to the
				rules in Sections
				558.50,
				558.60, and
				558.70.
a) The flatbed vehicle must have sides,
				sideboards, or stakes and a rear endgate, endboard, or stakes. Those devices
				must be strong enough and high enough to assure that cargo will not shift upon,
				or fall from, the vehicle. Those devices must have no aperture large enough to
				permit cargo in contact with one or more of the devices to pass through
				it.
b) The flatbed vehicle must
				have at least one tiedown assembly that meets the requirements of Section
				558.50 for
				each 10 linear feet of lading or fraction thereof. In addition, the vehicle
				must have as many additional tiedown assemblies meeting the requirements of
				Section
				558.50 as are
				necessary to secure all cargo being transported either by direct contact
				between the cargo and the tiedown assemblies or by dunnage which is in contact
				with the cargo and is secured by tiedown assemblies. Tiedown assemblies or
				dunnage in contact with sufficient exterior (including topmost) pieces of the
				cargo and securely holding each interior piece comply with this
				requirement.
c) The flatbed vehicle
				must have other means of protecting against shifting or falling cargo which are
				at least as effective as those specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this
				Section.
d) Whenever a motor
				carrier transports one or more coils of metal which, individually or as a
				combination banded together, weigh 5,000 pounds or more and the vehicle does
				not conform to the rules in paragraphs (a), (b), or (c) of this Section, the
				coils shall be secured as listed below. The same tiedown assembly shall not be
				used to comply with more than one of the requirements of paragraphs (d)(1)(A),
				(B), or (C) of this Section.
1) Coils with
				eyes vertical (see Illustration A - Figure 1): One or more coils which are
				grouped and loaded side by side in a transverse or longitudinal row must be
				secured by all three of the following tiedown assemblies -
A) A tiedown assembly against the front of
				the coil or row of coils, restraining against forward motion; and
B) A tiedown assembly against the rear of the
				coil or row of coils, restraining against rearward motion; and
C) A tiedown assembly over the top of each
				coil or transverse row of coils, restraining against vertical motion.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 558 - SECUREMENT OF STEEL COILS AND OTHER OBJECTS ON FLATBED VEHICLES › Section 558.50 - Securement Systems

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
The rules in this Section apply to tiedown assemblies
				(including chains, cables, steel straps, and fiber webbing), other securement
				devices, and attachment or fastening devices used in conjunction therewith,
				which are used to secure cargo to motor vehicles in transit. All devices which
				are used to secure cargo to a motor vehicle in transit under the rules in this
				Part must conform to the requirements of this Section.
a) Tiedown assemblies. The aggregate static
			 breaking strength of the tiedown assemblies used to secure an article against
			 movement in any direction must be at least 11/2 times the weight of that
			 article. Chain used as a component of a tiedown assembly must conform to the
			 requirements of the November, 1975 edition of the National Association of Chain
			 Manufacturer's Welded Chain Specifications applicable to all types of chain.
			 Steel strapping used as a component of a tiedown assembly must conform to the
			 requirements of Federal Specification No. QQ-S-781H (as amended May 18, 1977).
			 Copies of both of these specifications are available in the Illinois State
			 Library and the office of the Illinois Department of Transportation. Steel
			 strapping that is one inch wide or wider must have at least two pairs of crimps
			 in each seal and, when end-over-end lap joints are formed, must be sealed with
			 at least two seals.
b) Load binders
			 and hardware. The strength of load binders and hardware that are part of, or
			 used in conjunction with, a tiedown assembly must be equal to, or greater than,
			 the minimum strength specified for that tiedown assembly in paragraph (a) of
			 this Section.
c) Attachment to the
			 vehicle. The hook, bolt, weld, or other connector by which a tiedown assembly
			 is attached to a vehicle, and the mounting place and means of mounting the
			 connector, must be at least as strong as the tiedown assembly when that
			 connector is loaded in any direction in which the tiedown assembly may load
			 it.
d) Winches or other fastenings.
			 The anchorages of a winch or other fastening devices mounted on a vehicle and
			 used in conjunction with a tiedown assembly must have a combined tensile
			 strength equal to, or greater than, the strength of the tiedown
			 assembly.
e) Adjustability. A
			 tiedown assembly and its associated connectors and attachment devices must be
			 designed, constructed, and maintained so that the driver of an in-transit
			 vehicle can tighten them. However, the rules in this paragraph do not apply to
			 a securement system in which the tiedown assembly consists of steel strapping
			 or a tiedown assembly which is not required by the rules in this
			 Section.

a)
			 Protection against longitudinal movement. When a flatbed vehicle carries cargo
			 that is not firmly braced against a front-end structure that conforms to the
			 requirements of Section
			 558.70, the
			 cargo must be secured so that, when the vehicle decelerates at a rate of 20
			 feet per second per second, the cargo will remain on the vehicle and will not
			 penetrate the vehicle's front-end structure.
b) Protection against lateral movement. When
			 a vehicle carries cargo that may shift sideways in transit, the cargo must
			 either be securely blocked or braced against the sides, sideboards, or stakes
			 of the vehicle or be secured by devices that conform to the requirements of
			 paragraph (b) or (c) of Section
			 558.40.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 558 - SECUREMENT OF STEEL COILS AND OTHER OBJECTS ON FLATBED VEHICLES › Section 558.70 - Front-end Structure

			 flatbed vehicle transporting objects meeting the limits indicated in Section
			 558.40(d) and (e)
			  must be equipped with a headerboard or
			 similar device of sufficient strength to prevent load shifting and penetration
			 or crushing of the driver's compartment.
b) Location. The front-end structure must be
			 located between the vehicle's cargo and the vehicle's driver.
c) Height and width. The front-end structure
			 must extend either to a height of 4 feet above the floor of the vehicle or to a
			 height at which it blocks forward movement of any item of cargo being carried
			 on the vehicle, whichever is lower. The front-end structure must have a width
			 which is at least equal to the width of the vehicle or which blocks forward
			 movement of any item of cargo being transported on the vehicle, whichever is
			 narrower.
d) Strength. The
			 front-end structure must be capable of withstanding the horizontal forward
			 static load specified in either paragraph (1) or (2) as follows.
1) For a front-end structure less than 6 feet
			 in height, a horizontal forward static load equal to one half 1/2 of the weight
			 of the cargo being transported on the vehicle uniformly distributed over the
			 entire portion of the front-end structure that is within 4 feet above the
			 vehicle's floor or that is at or below a height above the vehicle's floor at
			 which it blocks forward movement of any item of the vehicle's cargo, whichever
			 is less.
2) For a front-end
			 structure 6 feet in height or higher, a horizontal forward static load equal to
			 four-tenths (0.4 ) of the weight of the cargo being transported on the vehicle
			 uniformly distributed over the entire front-end structure.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
The following definitions have been adopted by the Department
				of Transportation for the purpose of administering the provisions of the
				Freeway Act.
"Freeway." A freeway is defined as a public highway especially
				designed for through traffic and to or from which owners of or persons having
				an interest in abutting property, or other persons, have no right of direct
				access or only limited right of direct access by reason of the fact that the
				said property abuts upon such highway, or for any other reason. On freeways to
				be constructed with complete control of access the physical means of access
				shall be limited to ramps, approaches or other facilities located, designed and
				constructed by the Department for entrance to and exit from the freeway by the
				general public.
"Local Service Drives." Local service drives, commonly called
				frontage roads, are roads located generally parallel and adjacent to the
				freeway traffic lanes. Their purpose is to provide means of indirect access to
				and from the freeway by the owners of, or persons having interests in the
				properties abutting the freeway, or any other persons. These local service
				drives or frontage roads may be either roads constructed by the Department on
				the freeway right of way or existing roads or streets adjacent to the freeway
				which shall be or have been designated as such local service drives or frontage
				roads by the Department.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 92 - TRANSPORTATION › Part 562 - FREEWAYS AND CONTROL OF ACCESS › Section 562.30 - Control of Access

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a)
			 Complete. Access shall be controlled either
1)
			 by constructing local service drives or frontage roads adjacent to the freeway
			 and/or designating existing roads or streets as local service drives or
			 frontage roads to provide access to the freeway from adjacent areas
			 or
2) by extinguishing all rights
			 of direct access of the abutting property owners to and from the freeway by
			 purchase or eminent domain and eliminating all existing means of direct access.
			 Where local service drives are to be constructed they shall be of appropriate
			 design and construction and shall be separated from the freeway by parkways,
			 curbs or other effective devices, and shall afford access to the freeway only
			 at entrances provided for that purpose by the Department.

			 Full Freeway.
1) When lands are being
			 acquired as rights of way and frontage roads are to be constructed or
			 designated, access rights will also be acquired with the agreement or
			 stipulation that the grantor's means of access to the freeway shall be by the
			 way of the frontage road.
2) When
			 lands are not required as right of way from the abutting owner and no frontage
			 road is to be constructed or designated through that area his rights of direct
			 access will be completely extinguished by purchase or condemnation.
3) Where lands are not required as right of
			 way from the abutting owner, but a frontage road is to be constructed in front
			 of his property it will not be necessary to acquire a release of access rights
			 from such an owner. In such a case his access to the freeway will be limited to
			 that by way of the frontage road and so enforced by the Department.
4) Where an abutting owner's property lies
			 between the freeway and an existing local road or street which has been
			 designated as a local service drive or frontage road by the Department, the
			 said owner's right of direct access will be acquired with the agreement or
			 stipulation that his means of access to the freeway shall be by way of the said
			 frontage road.
5) Where an existing
			 road or street immediately adjacent to the freeway is designated as a frontage
			 road it will not be necessary to acquire release of access rights from owners
			 of lands abutting the said existing road or street. In such cases access to the
			 freeway will be limited to that by way of the said existing road or street and
			 so enforced by the Department.

1) The identification emblem consists of a
				fluorescent, orange equilateral triangle with a red retroreflective border
				positioned with a point of the triangle up. The red-orange fluorescent triangle
				provides for daylight identification. The red retro-reflective border appears
				as a hollow red triangle in the path of motor vehicle headlights at night. The
				emblem may be movable or vehicular mounted.
2) The emblem manufacturer's name and company
				address will be on the face of the emblem, along with a statement certifying
				that the emblem is in compliance with ASAE S276.5. This information shall be
				clearly and permanently marked on the face of the emblem. It will appear only
				in the lower center or lower right-hand corner of the emblem. On movable
				emblems, the information may be located on the reverse side of the backing
				material.
b) Material Requirements
1) Visibility of retroreflective materials. The
				emblem shall be visible at night as a hollow red triangle from all distances
				between 600 and 1000 feet from the rear when directly in front of lawful
				vehicle low beam headlights.
2) Visibility of fluorescent materials. The emblem
				shall be visible in the daylight as a red-orange fluorescent triangle from all
				distances between 600 and 1000 feet.
c) Position of Emblem

3) The emblem shall be displayed as near to the rear
				and centered, or as near to the left of center of the vehicle or equipment as
				practical. It shall be located 2 to 10 feet above the ground measured from the
				lower edge of the emblem.
4) The emblem shall be securely and rigidly affixed
				to the equipment. Movable emblems may be mounted by using the socket and
				bracket specified in ANSI/ASAE S277, or by other means that provide secure and
				rigid attachment.
5) The effective reflectivity and fluorescence of
				the emblem shall be unobscured to the extent that the triangular shape is
				readily identifiable both day and night.
