20、ported by rail with pocket wagons. For this, the semi-trailers is meant to be suitable for handling by crane. They are handled by gantry cranes or mobile transhipment equipment by the grappler pockets using grabs and lifted into the pocket wagons. The semi-trailers rests with their wheels on the sun

21、ken loading area (pocket) of the wagon and at the front with the fifth-wheel plate on the jack. The king pin is locked in the jack and is responsible for the fixing of the semi-trailer in all directions and hence also for withstanding the relevant forces.2 Normative referencesThe following documents

For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.EN 13044-3, Intermodal Loading

26、ort. The lower part of the swept envelope is determined by the wagon design and the upper part of the swept envelope by the railway track profile (height).Semi-trailers in accordance with this European Standard may not exceed the lower swept envelope in accordance with Figure 1 in the stipulated loa
