1 Answers
17.5-meter flatbed truck can carry 10 cubic meters. Flatbed truck: Flatbed truck, with a body length of about five feet and a height of over two feet, is assembled with varying numbers of flat wooden boards for both the frame and the bed. It features iron axles and large wooden wheels, with a diameter of approximately one and a half feet. Traditional wooden wheels are rarely seen in rural areas nowadays, as most have been replaced with rubber tires. Uses of flatbed truck: Flatbed trucks are commonly used for transporting people and goods. When driving, the "harness" tied between the two handles is hung over the shoulders, and with both hands holding the handles and the body leaning slightly forward, the truck can be pulled along the road. When encountering uphill slopes or slippery roads, an additional rope tied to the right handle can be looped over the shoulder for pulling, or someone can push from behind to assist in moving forward. Typically, the truck is equipped with two to three movable sideboards to prevent leakage of manure, crops, or other small items. In northern Shaanxi, water carts used for transporting water are simpler than flatbed trucks, with longer handles and wheels higher than the bed, making it easier to turn and maintain balance during movement. At local markets or temple fairs, flatbed trucks are often loaded with goods and parked on both sides of the road, serving as convenient mobile stalls.
