Abstract: A cargo-carrying apparatus and a floor for a cargo-carrying apparatus, the floor comprising: a floor body having a top floor surface; and a slip-resistant layer extending partially over the top floor surface such that the top floor surface includes at least one covered portion covered by the slip-resistant layer and at least one uncovered portion adjacent the at least one covered portion.
Abstract: The present invention concerns a system and method for providing reinforcement in the form of strength and/or moisture protection at discrete locations along the bottom of a wooden cargo-carrying floor, which reduces the cost associated with such manufacture and provides at least equal if not better results. The cargo-carrying floor surface reinforcing system for a cargo-carrying body, such as transport vehicle or transport container, comprises a flooring section and at least one region having a predetermined area smaller than an area of said bottom surface of said flooring section. The flooring section is comprised of a plurality of wood boards having a top surface, a bottom surface, first and second side surfaces arranged side by side, the boards in turn being comprised of strips of wood joined end-to-end and side-to-side.
