Question:

When securing concrete pipe over 45 inches loaded crosswise, which direction must the tiedowns on the rear half of the load run?

A Forward
explanation

Requirements for securing the pipe:
- Secure each pipe with tiedowns through the pipe.
- Run at least one tiedown through each pipe in the front half of the load. This includes the middle one if there are an odd number. The tiedown must run rearward at an angle not more than 45° with the horizontal when viewed from the side of the vehicle, whenever practicable.
- Run at least one tiedown through each pipe in the rear half of the load. The tiedown must run forward at an angle not more than 45° with the horizontal when viewed from the side of the vehicle, whenever practicable. This holds each pipe firmly in contact with adjacent pipe.
