- W2497385417 abstract "Maritime transport technology has been characterised in recent years by two main trends—the ever-increasing size of bulk carriers and the adoption of improved methods of cargo handling. Improvements in cargo handling have largely revolved around ‘unitisation’, the process of combining individual packages into large units which can be handled as one. This can make for the quicker and more efficient dispatch of vessels and for a rapid, safe and more economic movement of goods. Unitisation can be achieved by strapping items together (for example, timber, cartons) or placing them on rigid platforms such as pallets or larger ‘Lancashire flats’ and in each case handling can be by means of fork-lift trucks. It is, however, the container that has attracted most attention and it has become usual to refer to the ‘container revolution’ that is now in progress. The container, or box, may be of any size, but full advantages of intermodal transfer only derive from the use of the standard modules which have an 8 ft by 8 ft end section and lengths of 10, 20, 30 or 40 ft. Such containers also have standardised corner members and lifting-points." @default.
