This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides information on the subject of Air Modecontainers used for transporting “Hanging Loads” such as Garment-On-Hangers (GOH), or other roofsupported cargo. It suggests considerations and recommendations for roof loaded containers totransport hanging loads efficiently and safely by air and to protect the aircraft floor and cargo system from damage due to overload conditions.1.1 Purpose:This document provides considerations and recommendations for the design and use of unit loaddevices (ULD’s) (certified or non-certified) for transportation of hanging loads in aircraft equippedwith a restraint system for ULD’s in accordance with NAS3610.Because the load paths of roof-loaded containers are totally different to the more commonly usedfloor-loaded ULD, the purpose of this document is to alert and inform ULD manufacturers, shippers,the airline industry, and the airframe manufacturers of the unique load distribution characteristics ofroof-loaded containers and the potential consequences of loading in this manner. Specific topics covered are:a. Load distribution within the container - from roof to base.b. Distribution of container-loads to the aircraft cargo compartment.Also included are suggested methods of improving load distribution and recommended load limitsfor various types of roof-loaded containers.1.2 Field of Application:These containers are to be used exclusively in conjunction with the air mode on the Main Deck(certified containers only), and Lower Deck (certified and non-certified containers) of Freighter,Convertible, Combi and Passenger versions of fixed-wing wide- and standard-body aircraft. Airmode containers will normally be on aircraft roller conveying systems and/or on similarly equippedancillary ground handling devices.1.3 Definition:GOH CONTAINER: An article of transport equipment having an internal volume of 1 m3 (35 ft3) ormore, with NAS3610 compatible restraint provisions for an aircraft restraint system and an entirelyflush base to allow handling on rollerized cargo handling systems, and fitted with roof devices fromwhich garments (or other hanging loads) may be hung.
