Why is there no weight/frequency graph for team carrying tasks?
A. L23 provides weight reduction factors for team lifting (two thirds for two person lift etc.) but nothing for team carrying. There has been work on team stretcher carrying but team carrying is more specialised than could be conveniently included in the MAC. Therefore, for simplicity and ease of use of the MAC, it was decided to use a flow chart for team handling that incorporates the lifting data.
