Center of Balance Calculation
Weigh all axels (combined weight of axle), Establish a RDL (Reference Datum Line) at the front axle, measure distance from RDL to all axles (to center of dual axles), compute moments for all axles or combined axles, divide total moments by total weight to determine CB.
EXAMPLE: Weight x Distance = Moment W1XD1=M1, W2xD2=M2 (A 2 ½ ton truck with trailer) CB=(M1+M2)/(W1+W2) 2,112,124 divided by 16,312 = 129.4 = 129 (round to the nearest inch) The CB for the combined load is 129 inches aft of the front of the front axle.

Explain the 4 types of Shoring
Sleeper: Use sleeper shoring under the frame or axles of vehicles that weigh over 20,000 pounds are equipped with soft, low pressure, balloon-type, off road tires. Sleeper prevents vehicle from bouncing up and down and possibly pulling the tie down rings out of the aircraft floor.
Rolling: Use rolling shoring to protect the aircraft parking ramp, and the cargo floor and loading ramps of cargo airplanes from damage when transporting a vehicle across it.
Parking: Use parking shoring to protect the aircraft floor from damage during flight. Any vehicle requiring rolling shoring also requires parking shoring. Use parking to protect the aircraft floor or ramps from contact such as blades, buckets, fork-lift tines, steel wheels, and trailer tongue support.
Approaching: Use approach shoring to decrease the approach angle of aircraft loading ramps. This is because some items of cargo will strike the aircraft or ground due to loading/offloading operations.
