Nowadays, more and more cargo is being transported. Vehicles and vessels mostly carry cargo that does not exceed the permitted dimensions and thus does not pose a danger to traffic participants and the persons handling cargo. Despite the fact that most of the cargo is of standard dimensions, we still have indivisible cargo, which cannot be divided into smaller parts and thus exceeds the permitted dimensions. In order to safely carry out the movement of the oversized-overweight cargo (OOG), we need appropriate handling equipment and trained personnel to reduce the danger at work.
The main gain of the diploma thesis is the question of how to handle oversized-overweight cargo as safely as possible? In order to answer the questions above, it was necessary to pose other questions, such as: Which cargo is considered as oversized-overweight cargo? Which transportation devices can we use to move oversized-overweight cargo? Which trans loading machinery can we use? What is the legislation on the handling of oversized-overweight cargo?
