HEADLOAD Clause Samples
The HEADLOAD clause defines the maximum weight or load that can be placed on top of cargo during transportation or storage. In practice, this clause specifies a limit to the vertical pressure that can be applied to goods, ensuring that items stacked above do not exceed a certain weight threshold.
