Technics

The organisation of the interface between road and the other transport modes requests specific techniques, tools and equipments:

• Intermodal transport units [ITU]
• Transhipment techniques – Horizontal transhipment Rail-road
• Transhipment techniques – Horizontal transhipment Sea-road
• Transhipment techniques – Vertical transhipment Rail-road
• Transhipment techniques – Vertical transhipment Waterway-road

Here, you will find only the main intermodal transport units and transhipment techniques, knowing that others have been developed but are less widespread.
