Three-Level Strap Evidence Check

Use this worksheet to prevent one data sheet or test from carrying more meaning than it should. Keep the exact proposed material, joint, tool and unit-load configuration attached to every result.

Level 1 — Material

Check Recorded evidence Decision
Material identity and conditioning
Width, thickness, surface, coil and core
Break strength, elongation and test basis

Level 2 — Joint

Check Recorded evidence Decision
Seal, buckle or weld identity
Actual tool or machine and settings
Joint result and observed failure mode

Level 3 — Complete unit load

Check Recorded evidence Decision
Assembled pallet configuration
Relevant compression, vibration and impact sequence
Movement, damage and retained restraint

Final review

  • Are all reports owned and dated by an identifiable party?
  • Do the reports cover the same material, dimensions, joint and equipment?
  • Do the complete-unit conditions resemble the real handling route?
  • Are vehicle restraint, regulated cargo and lifting reviewed separately?
