Frequently, goods are transported by rail or by road train, the dimensions of which go beyond the standard framework. They are called oversized and require special marking, fixing and stacking during loading. Size - what is it and what is it for? There are several main types of dimensions that serve to calculate the type of a particular cargo, equipment, and also allow you to take into account travel routes in problem areas.
Railway dimensions
Given that trains travel in a strictly fixed direction and cannot turn around to avoid an unexpected obstacle, there are certain dimensions related to buildings, cargo and rolling stock that have clear and fixed dimensions.
An outline perpendicular to the axis of the track, in which a railway train standing on a straight track should be placed, without leaving parts outside this contour, regardless of the load, is called the gauge of the rolling stock. These dimensions refer to wagons and platforms that are used on all types of general purpose tracks of the Russian railways and can be operated exclusively on lines where devices and buildings meet the requirements included in the overall dimensions of the building.
Approaching buildings
Dimension - what is it in relation to the approach of buildings on the railway? The maximum transverse contour, inside which, in addition to trains and other rolling stock, other elements of devices and structures should not enter, is the size of the approach of buildings.
Excluded from this list are only parts directly related to the train (ensuring its operation). These include:
- Hump \u200b\u200bretarders for cars.
- Signaling and communication devices.
The placement of these devices inside the overall space should be coordinated by elements interacting directly with them. Gosstandart provides for two types of dimensions for approaching buildings: "C" and "Sp".
Loads and equipment (dimensions)
Dimensions and dimensions of cargo are regulated by the loading gauge. It represents the maximum transverse contour in which the load must be placed, without any parts going beyond the established norms. This indicator is close to the same indicator but has wide tolerances in width by 15 cm (340 instead of 325).
Products and goods that cannot be placed in accordance with the loading gauge are classified as oversized items. Their transportation is carried out in the manner prescribed by the management of Russian Railways. To control the correct placement of transported objects at points of mass loading (on access roads, in ports, at transfer points), clearance gates are mounted, which control the freedom of passage of a loaded transport train.
Dimensions of containers
To ensure safety, efficiency and maximum productivity during loading and unloading and transport operations, all containers have certain fixed dimensions, depending on the type. Below are the dimensions of containers that are most often used for the transportation of goods.
Standard twenty-foot modification:
- External length / height / width - 6096/2591/2370 (mm).
- Similar internal indicators - 5935/2383/2335 (mm).
- Maximum weight (with tare) - 24 tons.
- Volume - 33.9 cubic meters m.
Forty-foot refrigerator container:
- External length / height / width - 12192/2591/2438 (mm).
- Similar internal dimensions - 11555/2280/2286 (mm).
- Gross weight (maximum) - 30.48 tons.
- Container (weight) - 4.37 tons.
Requirements and dimensions for oversized cargo
Oversized cargo is a transported product, the size of which goes beyond the norms established by the relevant clauses of the transportation rules, as well as technical indicators vehicle (TS). Such goods are not intended for transportation by conventional trucks or wagons.
According to the rules of the road, oversized cargo must be transported by vehicles that have the following indicators:
- Width (mm) - 2500.
- Length (mm) - 20,000.
- Height above road level - 4000 m.
If the dimensions, dimensions of the cargo are more than four meters in width, it must be transported under the supervision and accompanied by employees of the State Traffic Inspectorate.
Vehicle functionality limitations in terms of capacity:
- Height - 2500 mm.
- Length - - 13 600 mm.
- Width - - 2500 mm.
If at least one indicator is exceeded, the products are classified as oversized cargo. The dimensions also affect the cost of transportation.
Features:
Knowing the concept of "size", what it is and what its features are, it is much easier to navigate in the optimal choice of cargo transportation. Carry goods with dimensions above normative indicatorsis not always acceptable. All the pros and cons should be considered.
The advantages include the following:
- The carrier's guarantees about the safety of products and traffic safety.
- The ability to use a different type of transport, depending on the characteristics of the cargo.
- As a variant, the railway rolling stock can be operated.
Among the disadvantages are the following aspects:
- The complexity of the installation and stowage of cargo, the dimensions of which do not make it possible to optimally place it on the transport platform.
- The need to coordinate such transportations with the Federal Road Transport Service.
- High price.
Transportation methods
The dimensions of equipment or other goods that exceed the standard dimensions require an individual approach to their transportation in each specific case.
If the goods have an excessively large mass, then it is appropriate to use platforms with the proper load capacity and the maximum possible number of axles, which serve to protect against deformation of the roadway and ensure weight distribution over the entire load plane.
Transportation oversized cargo can be carried out by special transport (ferries, barges, transshipment ships, truck tractors increased power, special railway rolling stock).
Output
When transporting goods, it is very important to take into account any size. What it is was discussed above. In short, we can summarize that the standard size is a guideline, the excess of which requires a different approach to the transportation of goods, taking into account its width, length, height and weight. The same parameters mainly affect the choice of a vehicle that will be used for transportation. In this case, the vehicle must be equipped with special signs and plates warning of oversized cargo.
Remember the famous thesis expressed by Ostap Bender: "A car is not a luxury, but a means of transportation"? In our time, it can be supplemented with the words "people and cargo".
If most motorists do not have questions about the rules for the carriage of passengers, then not everyone is familiar with the nuances associated with the carriage of goods. A whole section is allocated to this issue in the Traffic Rules.
Traffic requirements
In the traffic rules, section 23 is devoted to the carriage of goods, which consists of five points, in which the legislator has provided for all possible situations that arise during their transportation by car.
Section 23.1 deals with the permissible values \u200b\u200bfor the mass of the cargo. 23.2 instructs the driver to control its placement and fastening.
23.1. The mass of the transported cargo and the distribution of the axle load must not exceed the values \u200b\u200bestablished by the manufacturer for this vehicle.
23.2. Before the start and during the movement, the driver is obliged to control the placement, fastening and condition of the cargo in order to avoid it falling, interfering with movement.
Paragraph 23.3 of the SDA explicitly indicates when the carriage of goods is allowed and has five paragraphs, of which one should mention a rather unusual thing for modern drivers that many drivers forget about: placing the load should not interfere with the perception of hand signals.
23.3. Carriage of cargo is allowed provided that it:
- does not limit the driver's view;
- does not complicate control and does not violate the stability of the vehicle;
- does not cover external lighting devices and reflectors, registration and identification marks, and also does not interfere with the perception of hand signals;
- does not create noise, does not generate dust, does not pollute the road and the environment.
If the condition and placement of the cargo does not meet the specified requirements, the driver is obliged to take measures to eliminate violations of the listed transportation rules or to stop further movement.
Permissible dimensions of cargo for transportation by road
What is considered a bulky cargo, the transportation of which does not require receipt special permits, but has strictly defined transportation rules specified in the traffic rules?
23.4. Cargo protruding beyond the dimensions of the vehicle in front and behind by more than 1 m or to the side by more than 0.4 m from the outer edge side light, must be marked with identification signs "Oversized cargo", and in the dark and in conditions of insufficient visibility, in addition, in the front - with a lantern or a reflector white, behind - a lantern or a red reflector.
By lenght
If the load protrudes beyond the dimensions of the car in front and behind by more than 1m, but not more than 2m. It should be noted here that despite the presence of the letter "and", you can read "or". Let's say the load is extended by more than a meter only for rear clearance the car, but there is no front, it is already becoming large.
By width
It is also indicated how much the load can protrude across the width of the car - no more than 40 cm.
ATTENTION. Unlike the first case, where it is necessary to measure the length of the protruding part from the extreme point of the car, here the measurement is taken from the edge of the rear parking light, which means that it will actually protrude slightly less than the prescribed 40 cm, since the indicated lamp is always slightly deeper than the extreme lateral point car.
If, after measurements, at least one parameter exceeds the above norms, it should be marked with the “Oversized cargo” sign, and in the dark or with insufficient visibility, also with lanterns or reflectors: white in front and red in the back.
Height
Despite the fact that clause 23.4 of the SDA does not say about the height of the cargo, it should be remembered that the load should not exceed four meters up from the surface of the carriageway (clause 23.5 of the SDA).
Consider the following situation: the load does not protrude beyond the dimensions of the car, but reaches 3 meters 85 centimeters from the roadbed, the sign "Oversized cargo" is not required.
Sometimes it happens.
Clause 23.5 of the SDA defines the goods and vehicles for transportation or passage of which you will have to obtain a special permit:
23.5. Transportation of heavy and dangerous goods, the movement of a vehicle, the overall parameters of which, with or without cargo, exceed 2.55 m in width (2.6 m for refrigerated trucks and insulated bodies), 4 m in height from the surface of the carriageway, in length ( including one trailer) 20 m, or the movement of a vehicle with a load protruding beyond the rear point of the vehicle's dimensions by more than 2 m, as well as the movement of road trains with two or more trailers are carried out in accordance with special rules.
International road transportation is carried out in accordance with the requirements for vehicles and transportation rules established by international treaties Russian Federation.
Transportation rules
On the territory of the Russian Federation, the transportation of oversized cargo is regulated by a number of normative legal acts, in addition to traffic rules, this includes:
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 15.04.2011. No. 272 \u200b\u200b"On approval of the rules for the carriage of goods by road";
- Order of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation of July 24, 2012 No. 258 “On Approval of the Procedure for Issuing a Special Permit for Movement on Highways of a Vehicle Carrying Out the Transportation of Heavy and (or) Oversized Cargo”;
- Order of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation of January 15, 2014 N 7 "On approval of the rules for ensuring the safety of transportation of passengers and goods by road and urban land electric transport and a list of measures for the training of employees of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs carrying out transportation by road and urban land electric transport, to safe work and vehicles for safe operation ”.
The documents are quite voluminous and informative, affecting not only the topic under consideration, therefore we will consider them in the part concerning.
You should start with the loading rules, the basic norms of which are spelled out in sufficient detail. This includes sorting cargo by weight, namely, the heavier ones are located at the bottom to maintain the stability of the vehicle while driving, the cargo must be uniform, well fixed. It is also prescribed not to allow gaps between loaded products, instructing them to fill them with gaskets.
Homogeneous piece loads in the body of a vehicle must be stacked in compliance with the same number of tiers and ensuring reliable fastening of the upper tier of the stack (clause 36 of the Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 7 of 15.01.2014).
Here we are talking about the need to attract escort vehicles, justifying this with an increased danger when transporting bulky goods (clause 52 of the Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 7 of January 15, 2014).
Clauses 53-58 of the Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 7 of 15.01.2014. establish escort rules and requirements for escort vehicles. Tractors and (or) cars of the State Traffic Inspectorate can be used as these vehicles (clauses 53-58 of the Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 7 of January 15, 2014).
Clauses 59 and 60 of the same Order of the Ministry of Transport No. 7 dated 01/15/2014 give an exhaustive list of situations and conditions under which the transportation of such goods is prohibited:
- deviate from the route specified in the special permit;
- exceed the speed specified in the permit;
- carry out movement during ice, snowfall, as well as with meteorological visibility less than 100 meters;
- drive along the side of the road, if such a procedure is not determined by the conditions of carriage;
- stop outside specially marked parking lots located outside the carriageway;
- continue carriage upon occurrence technical malfunction a vehicle that endangers the safety of traffic, as well as when the load is displaced or loosened.
If, during the movement, circumstances arose that require a change in the route of movement, the subject of transport activity is obliged to obtain a special permit for the new route in the prescribed manner.
As indicated
In view of the increased danger for road users, these cargoes must be marked with the sign “Oversized cargo” (clause 23.4 of the SDA). The indicated sign is installed directly on the cargo itself at the extreme protruding point.
Therefore, if the load exceeds the established norms behind the vehicle, it is installed at the rear. If in front and behind - in both places, respectively. The same applies to the designation of the protruding parts on the sides of the vehicle.
In addition to the sign, it may be necessary to install white and red lamps or reflectors, respectively, in the front and rear, but this requirement is appropriate when transporting at night or in conditions of limited visibility.
Oversized cargo sign - dimensions according to GOST
The sign "oversized cargo", as drivers often call it, simply does not exist in the legal field of the Russian Federation, since this is a vernacular and simplified name for the identification mark "Oversized cargo".
The dimensions of the sign are defined in the form of a square with a side of 400 mm and alternating oblique red and white stripes, each 50 mm wide.
The above parameters are provided by the state standard GOST R12.4.026-2001, therefore, they are mandatory.
It is allowed to apply this sign directly on the cargo itself in the form of a sticker or drawing corresponding to the specified GOST.
IMPORTANT. The sign is made of light-reflecting materials!
This mark can be purchased or made by yourself. The only difficulty that arises is that the sign must necessarily be retroreflective.
There are two ways to solve this problem. The first is to purchase a special paint, which will hardly be cheaper than buying a ready-made sign. The second is to fork out a sticker for the sign and stick it on any solid base, such as a sheet of tin or a PVC panel. The main thing is to observe the dimension, do not take risks, do not make the sign less than that provided by GOST.
Transport permit
Until now, many motorists who have not encountered the problem of transporting bulky goods believe that a permit should be obtained from the traffic police. In fact, this is not the case.
The State Traffic Inspectorate provides for an approval procedure and it is connected with the duty of this service to determine whether there is a need to escort the cargo and in the form of escort (by the carrier special car or an official traffic police car).
Permits for transportation are issued by a number of authorized bodies, depending on which roads the route is agreed on: international, federal or municipal. Recently, it has also become possible to obtain the specified permission from the owner of the road, if it is in his ownership.
|
Transport Authorities |
|
| Categories of roads along which the route runs | Authorized body |
| Federal significance or their areas, the territory of two or more constituent entities of the Russian Federation; international traffic | Rosavtodor |
| Inter-municipal or regional significance or their plots, local significance, located on the territory of two or more formations (districts, districts of the municipality) | Executive body of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation |
| Local significance, on the territory of two or more settlements within the boundaries of the district | Self-government body of a municipality |
| Local significance, within the boundaries of one settlement | Settlement self-government body |
| Local county city | City district self-government body |
To start the procedure for obtaining a special permit, you must submit an application to the authorized body (see the table above), a package of documents is attached to the application: for the car that will participate in the transportation, for the cargo, the route diagram. Also, the authorized body has the right to request additional documentation related to the forthcoming transportation.
The terms for consideration of the application are spelled out in the administrative regulations and, depending on the number of approvals and related actions (assessment of the condition of the road or the need for strengthening or reconstruction), from five to thirty days.
Obtaining a special permit is a shareware procedure. The authorized body does not have the right to demand a fee for issuing a permit. But the applicant is obliged to pay a state fee in the amount of 1600 rubles (subparagraph 111 of paragraph 1 of article 333.33 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation (part two) of August 5, 2000 No. 117-F3, as amended by Federal Law of 21.07.2014 No. 221-FZ ).
Additionally, you may need to pay for the assessment road for the suitability for transportation of the cargo in question, as well as for the strengthening or reconstruction of road sections and engineering structures (for example, bridges) along the planned route. As well as compensation for damage caused by transportation to road and communications.
In what cases such transportation is prohibited
It is forbidden to transport bulky cargo, if there is a possibility for separate transportation without depriving the cargo of its operational properties, it is also forbidden to transport this category of cargo in organized columns (clause 51 of the Order of the Ministry of Transport dated January 15, 2014, No. 7).
A ban may be issued if there is no technical possibility on the route to carry out the declared transportation.
What is the penalty for violation
Liability for violation of the rules for the carriage of goods is provided for by two articles of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
Article 12.21 - Violation of the rules for the carriage of goods. Sanction: warning or fine in the amount of 500 rubles.
This article applies to goods that do not require special permission and liability may arise in approximately a number of cases: the absence of the “Oversized cargo” sign, the cargo is noisy, dusty or unreliable, complicates the view.
IMPORTANT. There are no sanctions for deprivation of the right to drive the vehicle, but according to Article 23.3 of the SDA, further movement until the violations identified are eliminated, and registration of the violation does not give the right to continue the trip.
Article 12.21.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation provides for liability for violation of the rules of movement of a large-sized vehicle. And here we are already talking, namely, about goods requiring special permission. In total, the article has 11 parts:

We all know perfectly well that cars come in different configurations and sizes. Many will agree that it is the overall dimensions - main characteristic car.
Overall classes of cars are usually used by manufacturers in order to arrange cars on the sales market.
Dimensions of cars and trucks
If you look at the overall dimensions of the car, that is, by its length, width, height, thickness, then the cars are divided into classes. Cars are also divided by type.
In Europe, not enough simple classification machines, it is compiled on the basis of the dimensional dimensions of the machines. Let's start with the passenger classes. "A" - these are cars that can be no more than 3.6 meters in length, and their width has the right to be no more than 1.6 meters.
Class "B" unites cars that should not exceed 3.9 meters in length, and therefore not more than 1.7 meters in width. "Middle class passenger cars, or as they are often called the "golf" class, combines cars of a rather larger size than in "A" and "B". Their length should not exceed 4.4 meters, and, accordingly, the width is 1.75 meters.
Well, and "D", "E", "F" are more overall than all previous classes, their length can reach 4.7 meters, width - 1.7 meters. All of these classes do not include such cars as: SUVs and sports cars.
In this video, you will be told how to determine the dimensions of the car and what you need to know for this.
Classification of dimensions of passenger cars:
- "A" - these are cars of the "OKA" type.
- "B" - cars that are larger than the previous class, but not much. They are the size of Tavriya.
- The “middle” class or “C” class is a very common class of cars. One of the representatives is the typical "Zhiguli".
- "D" - the representative of this class is "Moskvich".
- "E" is the largest class, it differs in its length from all previous classes, a representative of the "Volga".
It should be noted that "C" is the most common in Europe. The whole world gives preference to the classes "C" and "D", although it should be said that the rest of the classes are quite a small part behind them. There are also additional classes that are invented specifically for cars that do not fall into the above.
So, class "S", this class includes cars, such as sports cars, coupes or convertibles. Class "M", this category of dimensions includes minivans, or cars with increased capacity. Class "J", this category includes cars of the crossover type.
There is also a class for SUVs. Most of all, this type of car is popular and in demand by residents in the United States, since this type of car is quite prestigious and comfortable.
Dimensions Jaguar-X-type
Overall dimensions trucks made to international standards that facilitate the transport of goods in containers or other containers. Trucks are specially sized to accommodate freight containers that weigh twenty or forty feet.
The machines, which are designed to carry cargo, are twenty feet in size and contain a length of six meters and a height with a width of 2.4 meters. Needless to say, the truck is built to carry a forty-pound freight container, and is much longer, wider and more tall than the previous one.
The length of such a car for transporting cargo is twelve meters, and the width and height, surprisingly, has not changed and is 2.4 meters. The next, so-called standard for the overall dimensions of a truck, has the name "eurotruck".
The body of a truck of the "Euro-truck" standard must accommodate in its width two pallets of European quality and dimensions. And it is for this reason that the length of this truck is twelve meters, and the width and height are 2.45 meters.
From this video, it will become clear to you how to measure the dimensions of any truck, such as Kamaz and even any kind of trucks.
The five-ton can differ in body type. The body length of this machine, which is focused on cargo transportation, is six meters, and the width and height are two and a half meters. A truck called a ten-ton truck is also quite popular in the world. The machines included in this type differ greatly in size from each other.
The length that the body makes can be from 5 to 8 meters, depending on the car, but the width can also be different, but its dimensions are quite standard - 2.4 or 2.7 meters. The load that this type of vehicle is capable of lifting is five, ten, fifteen tons.
Cars of this type can have two body types. Well, for trucks, which are not very large in size, there is no specific numbering in numbers, since they carry out the transportation of any cargo in settlements.

Also, public transport should have certain dimensions.
They cannot be longer than twelve meters (buses or trolleybuses), the height must not exceed 4 meters.
Comparison of cars and trucks
Each car has its own personality. Cars, both trucks and cars, have their positive and negative qualities. Many people say that a car is not a luxury, it is a means that helps to maintain strength and health.
Cars are designed for recreation or for personal needs (to go on vacation, go to work or for business).
But truckswhich are created for the purpose of transportation different types cargo materials (building materials or furniture) are created to make money on them.
The buyer chooses each type of car according to its technical characteristics and, of course, at the price that suits you the most.

Semi-trailer (Eurotrailer, Megatrailer).There is a large number of modifications of tilt eurotrucks, among which we can distinguish semi-trailers with a length of 12.5 to 13.6 m, a width of up to 2.45 m, a height of up to 3 m and a useful volume of 78 to 120 m3. Due to its excellent cross-country ability and maneuverability, the truck can deliver up to 20 tons or up to 120 cubic meters of cargo to the specified address. Wagons deliver consumer goods, industrial cargo, food, long or bulky cargo, etc.
One of the advantages of truck transportation is the ability to load and unload the machine from the top, side and rear. Loading and unloading can be done by a truck crane, a loader or using the forces of loaders. The awning of the truck is removable, which allows side loading of non-standard cargo, pallets in the amount of 30 to 34 pcs.
Euro truck with hard van
A hard wagon van is not as comfortable as a curtain-sided one. Because of design features this body, only rear loading and unloading is possible.
| Length: | 13.2 - 13.6 m |
| Width: | 2.35 - 2.45 m |

AT In transport logistics, the eurotruck, with a volume of 82 cubic meters, is considered the most demanded and widespread vehicle. If there is a need to transport cargo in a rigid van, then a furniture van exists for these purposes.
Hitch 110, 120 semi-trailer + trailer (road train).
Road train is a hitch of two truck trailers , usually with a volume of 60 m3. In general, the road train-coupling can transport 110 -120 cubic meters of cargo on general roads without obtaining special permits. But the carrying capacity of the coupling, as a rule, does not exceed 20 tons. A wagon of 120 cubes is most suitable for the transportation of bulky and light cargo.
110-ka, 120-ka, coupling - this is the name of trucks that allow transporting the maximum volume (110, 120 cubic meters) of cargo on general roads without special permits. This road train (hitch), in contrast to the eurotruck, consists of a car and a trailer of the same or different volume and carrying capacity, it depends on the design features of a particular vehicle. At the same time, the total characteristics remain 120/110 cubic meters / 20 tons. Advantages: fast loading (unloading) and large useful volume. Disadvantage: not suitable for transporting long loads.
Isothermal automatic coupler
Car with a body on one frame + trailer. It can hold a certain temperature for a long time. Advantage: fast loading (unloading) and large usable volume.
Automatic coupler dimensions:
| Length: | 13.2 - 13.6 m |
| Width: | 2.35 - 2.45 m |

| Volume: | 1.0 - 120 m3 |
| Carrying capacity: | 20 tons |
| Euro pallet capacity: | 34 pcs |
Yumba or mega (Jumbo, Mega)
Another type of transport designed for the transportation of bulky goods is "yumba" and « mega » . Suitable for the transportation of high, cubic cargo. A semitrailer with a larger capacity than a Euro trailer. This is achieved due to the special "L" -shaped floor and reduced diameter of the semi-trailer wheels.
The peculiarities of these types of semi-trailers, volumetric, reduction of wheel diameters, due to this, the height of the semi-trailer increases, here it can reach 3.2 meters. They have one difference, for the "yumba" a conventional tractor is suitable, because the floor height of the semi-trailer is "L-shaped". The main part of the semi-trailer is 3-3.2 meters high, and the part that falls on the tractor's saddle is less high.Minus the semi-trailer " yumbs»(Jumbo or even jumbo) uneven floor height, difficulty in loading, long loads cannot be transported.
Dimensions:
| Length: | 13.2 - 13.6 m |
| Width: | 2.45 m |
| Height: | 2.30 - 2.50 m |
| Volume: | 96 - 120 m3 |

| Yumba Step Size: | |
| Length: | 4.4 m |
| Width: | 2.45 m |
| Height: | 2.5-2.7 m |
The next option is the mega tent semitrailer. Here, both the semi-trailer and the trailer have smaller wheels. By reducing the wheel diameters, the maximum permissible useful height of the semitrailer is achieved. The volume of these semi-trailers volumetric from 100 to 115 cubic meters. This type is ideal for transporting almost any type of cargo: pipes, all pallet cargo, special equipment and many, many others. The downside is that in the event of a tractor breakdown, the semitrailer is practically not transported by other tractors.
Onboard wagon
An on-board truck is often used to transport building materials, equipment that is not afraid of atmospheric precipitation.
Overall dimensions of the side truck:
| Length: | 11.7 - 13.6 m |
| Width: | 2.35 - 2.45 m |
| Carrying capacity: | 20-25 tons |
| Euro pallet capacity: | 34 pcs |
Loading is mainly done by crane or manipulator. The most optimal mode of transport for transportation of building materials, heavy machinery and equipment, container, lining and any other cargo, are onboard, open cars, they are often called scow.
Open platform (Container platform)
Low loader container chassis semitrailers are designed to transport two 20 'containers or one 40' high / standard container. The weight of the transported cargo on low loader semitrailers can reach 30 tons.
Overall dimensions of the container ship:
| Length: | 12.65 m |
| Width: | 2.50 m |
| Carrying capacity: | 30 tons |
It is used for the transportation of goods resistant to external weather influences. It can also be used to transport oversized equipment. This cargo platform can accommodate two 20 'containers or one 40' container.
