Abstract: Hauling vehicles, fixtures and methods for loading heavy cargo are provided. The fixture enables such cargo to be loaded on a trailer, boat or railway with a reduced "effective width". Such fixtures include a support frame and an arm which may be pivotally mounted to the support frame for enabling the cargo to be tilted from a first loading position to a second transporting position to reduce the degree to which the cargo extends beyond the width of the trailer. A plurality of perpendicular members extend from positions near the ends of the arm. Each perpendicular member has a rotating boot near an end opposite the arm. The rotating boot is shaped to contact and support an internal corner of the cargo, which may be a concrete double-tee. Transportation costs are significantly reduced through the use of the fixture, vehicle and method.

Abstract: Hauling vehicles, fixtures and methods for loading heavy cargo are provided by this invention. The fixture enables such cargo to be loaded on a trailer, boat or railway with a minimum "effective width". Such fixtures include a support frame and an arm swively mounted to the support frame for enabling the cargo to be tilted from a first loading position to a second transporting position to reduce the degree to which the cargo extends beyond the width of the trailer. Transportation costs are significantly reduced through the use of this invention.
