loading charts for transportation of goods
Loading charts display information showing the weight of shipments loaded in trailers.
Container crane operators operate electrically powered cranes equipped with cantilevers on which hoisting gear is supported to load or unload container cargo. They move towers in position alongside vessel and lower cantilevers over the deck or hold of a vessel. They lift and move containers along the cantilever and position the container on the dock, on the vessel deck or in the hold.
