Abstract:
A securement system for cargo containers comprising a plurality of structural members adapted for mounting within the container, such as a truck trailer, a railroad boxcar, or a portable container, to cooperate with support members such as beams, to secure the cargo within the container. The structural members may be mounted on the walls of the container, using auxiliary locking devices, or may be free-standing adjacent to the cargo. The structural members have components including recesses or openings adapted to be interengaged with a plurality of the support members which extend transversely or longitudinally of the container in order to hold the cargo in place. The structural members preferably extend vertically within the container.
