what does freight class 60 mean?
397580
All freight is placed in class prior to movement (used mostly in LTL, less than truckload, freight) based on the type of freight used. Freight class 60 would be non-hazmat, hard freight. Some items that would fit in this class would be metal machinery or car parts. \n\nBy using a class rating it tells the shipper what is on the dock when thay are pricing the move and gives the driver what he/she should expect prior to pick up.\n\nHope this helps.

Freight forwarding involves larger shipments to greater distances, usually LTL or less than trailer load. Although some messengers and couriers do handle freight and make long distance runs, the act of doing such is really freight forwarding. Freight forwarding also usually entails picking the shipment up and taking it door to door rather than from manufacturer to depot.

It means he has a Class B CDL [chauffeur's driver's license] but is not certified to operate a school bus.  Now, I am not sure for AZ, but he may or may not have a passenger endorsement.  A class B usually denotes he can operate vehicles over a certain GVW [gross vehicle weight], but cannot operate a bus with commercial or paying passengers on it.  He can drive one around and from one place to another, but not charge fares for rides or charters--again, unless he does in fact have a passenger endorsement.  Another endorsement to look for is AIR Brakes since most larger vehicles use them.  Like any government document, sometimes I think they are all purposely designed to be a pain in the a$$ to decipher.\nTry going to the AZ DMV website, if there is one, and searching for things like license endorsements.  It may provide an answer as to what, if any, abbreviations and endorsements mean.

Many jurisdictions allow a maximum weight loading per axle for commercial vehicles.  When a concrete (cement is the powder that glues concrete together) truck is fully loaded 9 to 10 yards, it will typically exceed the maximum allowable load.  The extra wheels are called a dolly.  These are hydraulically operated wheels that help spread the load onto another axle and therefore bring the truck into compliance with axle loading limits.  When the load is delivered and the truck is empty, the extra axle is raised to help reduce the turning radius of the truck.

It is a mark applied to the name plate of a pressure vessel by an authorized shop or other organization to indicate that the vessel has been fabricated in accordance with the ASME Section VIII Division 1 Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.  Along with the stamp there is a U-1 Form that provides details such as Maximum Allowable Working Pressure, Materials, Type of Non-Destructive Examination, etc.  Some states have laws that require the use of the ASME Code for pressure vessels and boilers\n\nI could go on, but I am beginning to bore myself.

Shipping generally means transporting your goods (or 'shipment') from one place to the other.\n\nThere are 3 methods:\n1. Land shipping: By local or overseas courier.\n2. Air Shipping: By overseas courier, or freight shipping.\n3. Sea Shipping: By sea shipping couriers, or any logistics providers.\n\nShipping can be a combination of any of the 3.\n\nLand shipping is technically the easiest, you can have local or overseas courier.\nCourier services are fairly simple to understand, you basically just need to submit in your details on the shipping company's courier form, and they will handle the rest. In some overseas cases, it is neccessary to include a packing list and proforma/commercial invoice.\n\nAir shipping is fairly easy as well, when all you need is your packing details and your commercial invoice and packing list.\nIt is important to mark your package as well so that the courier personnel know that it is your package.\n\nSea shipping involves more documents, but is cheaper than air shipping by a good margin.\nBesides the normal shipping documents, sea shipping involves one more document called the Bill of Lading, or B/L for short. The bill of Lading is a legally recognized document stating that you have the authority to load and unload your cargo. \nYou need 3 copies of your packing list, commercial invoice, Bill of Lading (Keep 1 copy of the original), packing details, Delivery Order in order to load your cargo. To unload, you need the same as well as calculating the GST on your commercial invoice.\n\nCertain ports also require ID certification in order to collect the cargo, so keep note of that.\n\nIn Shipping,  your documentation is very important. Always keep track of what you are shipping, how heavy it is, the dimensions of the cargo, how many items of cargo, the cost of the cargo, etc. Most people under-declare their cost of items in order to save money on the GST when unloading the cargo. \n\nAlso, keep in mind that you should always purchase insurance in sea shipping. Most companies will already have an import export clause (most common is the import clause) already in use, so you basically just need to keep in  touch with your accounts department to handle the insurance details.\n\nHope this was useful.

A second class lever means the load is located in the middle of the fulcrum and the effort, such as with a wheel barrel.  \n\nIt makes it easier to lift a load of dirt because you are using the force times lever arm equation.  The load is closer to the fulcrum, so its lever arm is small.  The effort is exerted farther away from the fulcrum, so the lever arm is large.  Therefore, you have BIG FORCE times small lever arm equals small force times BIG LEVER ARM.  \n\nThe larger the lever arm for the effort, the less force is needed.  \n\nOf course you never get something for nothing.  You always sacrifice distance with simple machines.  You lift the wheel  barrel arms up a foot, and the load only goes up maybe 3 or 4 inches.  But, we don't care about that really, since we want to roll it and dump it somewhere.
