🔍 Key Concepts

• Container lashing systems and what each component does (twistlocks, lashing rods, turnbuckles, bridge fittings) • How containers are connected vertically vs. how stacks are secured to the deck or hatch cover • The difference between preventing horizontal sliding, preventing racking (twisting), and tying stacks together

💭 Think About

• Think about where a bridge fitting is placed on a container stack and what it connects together. • Ask yourself: does a bridge fitting connect containers on top of each other, or does it connect stacks/tiers side‑by‑side or to the ship’s structure? • Match each answer choice to a specific piece of hardware: which choice sounds more like the job of a twistlock, and which sounds more like something used across the tops of containers?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the function of a twistlock (normally between containers vertically or between container and deck fitting). • Consider whether a bridge fitting is used between the tops of adjacent containers rather than between container and deck. • Verify which option describes connecting containers horizontally across a gap instead of directly above/below.
