Inner and/or outer (or both) edges of plating locally dented and/or buckled where handling gear marked (number of coils affected)."
"Side edge windings locally affected by deep score marks."
"Inner and/or outer (or both) turns of plating telescoped up to (give maximum extent of telescoping in centimetres, also number of coils affected.)"
"Telescoped edges of plating torn and bent (number of coils)."
"(Number of coils) loosely wound, windings slack, strapping bands slack; average number of strapping bands per coil broken and/or missing."
"Coil ovalised: note two way inner diameter measurements and mention numbers of individual coils affected."
NB. The tightness of the windings of coils and efficiency of strapping is of considerable importance. Loosely wound coils can lead to instability of the stow, damage to the material and eventual costs for re-strapping in order to facilitate further handling (for example, on carriage to final destination). The number of strapping bands applied are the minimum; broken or missing strapping bands should not be ignored.
