Applicable regulations for cargo handling.

1. Load

   • It is the movable property arranged for its transfer from one place to another and subject to operations to achieve this end without altering its main characteristics.
     • It is one that comes in a solid, liquid or gaseous state, and that being packed or unpacked, can be treated as a unit.
       • BULK LOAD (SOLID, LIQUID, GASEOUS)
         • It is the set of products that are transported in large quantities, whose only container is the transport vehicle. This cargo is usually deposited or dumped with a shovel, bucket, or bucket on railways, trucks, or ships. The bulk cargo is divided into:
           • NATURE OF THE LOAD
             • DANGEROUS LOAD
               • These are merchandise that, if not properly treated, can put human life and the environment where it is transported at risk. The Dangerous Cargo is characterized by having explosive, combustible, oxidizing, poisonous, radioactive or corrosive properties.
                 • PERISHABLE LOAD
                   • A certain number of products, especially foodstuffs, undergo a normal degradation in their physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics as a result of the passage of time and environmental conditions.
                     • FRAGILE LOAD
                       • The transportation of fragile products requires special handling. The entire operation must be carried out with extreme care, including packaging, handling (loading and unloading) and the transfer itself.
                         • LOAD TYPES
                           • GENERAL CARGO
                             • CONVITIONAL LOOSE
