Download or read book The Box written by Marc Levinson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 1956, a refitted oil tanker carried fifty-eight shipping containers from Newark to Houston. From that modest beginning, container shipping developed into a huge industry that reshaped manufacturing. But the container didn't just happen. Its adoption required huge sums of money, years of high-stakes bargaining, and delicate negotiation on standards. Now with a new chapter, The Box tells the dramatic story of how the drive and imagination of an iconoclastic entrepreneur turned containerization from an impractical idea into a phenomenon that transformed economic geography, slashed transportation costs, and made the boom in global trade possible. -- from back cover.
Download or read book Shipping Container written by Craig Martin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. The shipping container is all around: whizzing by on the highway, trundling past on rails, unloading behind a big box store even as you shop there, clanking on the docks just out of sight.... 90% of the goods and materials that move around the globe do so in shipping containers. It is an absolutely ubiquitous object, even if most of us have no direct contact with it. But what is this thing? Where has it been, and where is it going? Craig Martin's book illuminates the “development of containerization”-including design history, standardization, aesthetics, and a surprising speculative discussion of the futurity of shipping containers. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

Download or read book Guidelines for the international packaging and shipping of vaccines written by and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2020-12-22 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International shipping of vaccines is the first leg of the complex journey that vaccines undertake to reach the end users in a country. Particular challenges include the size and weight of packages, implementation of quality control checks at reception, ensuring environmental sustainability, and maintaining required temperatures during the journey. Although there are many possibilities of transport e.g. sea freight and terrestrial transportation, air freight currently remains the most widely used means of transport for vaccines. In recognition of this fact, these guidelines apply predominantly to the air freighting of vaccines. Transportation of vaccines from the manufacturing facility to the airport facility require the use of ground transportation, and reference is also made to the qualification of refrigerated road vehicles as well. The objective of these guidelines is to provide technical guidance to help ensure the quality of vaccines during all stages of the international air transportation process. These guidelines are applicable to all persons and institutions involved in international air shipment of vaccines from the premises of the product manufacturer to the recipient country. This includes all parties involved in shipment, vaccine manufacturers, logistics service providers (LSPs), freight forwarders, carriers and their employees. The relevant sections of these guidelines should also be considered for implementation by UN procurement agencies and other international procurement organizations, countries, donor agencies and certifying bodies.

Download or read book IMO ILO UNECE Code of Practice for Packing of Cargo Transport Units CTU Code written by International Labour Office and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of freight containers, swap bodies, vehicles or other cargo transport units substantially reduces the physical hazards to which cargoes are exposed. However, improper or careless packing of cargoes into/onto such units may be the cause of personnel injury or serious and costly damage to the cargo or equipment. A great many people in the transport chain rely on the skill of those working in cargo transport units, including road vehicle drivers and other road users, rail workers, crew members of vessels on inland waterways, handling staff at transfer terminals, dock workers, crew members of seagoing ships, those inspecting cargoes and those who unpack the units. This code of practice outlines best practices for cargo transport units. Co-published with the IMO and UNECE.
Download or read book Container Logistics and Maritime Transport written by Dong-Ping Song and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-05 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a coherent and systematic view of the key concepts, principles, and techniques in maritime container transport and logistics chains including all the main segments: international maritime trade and logistics, freight logistics, container logistics, vessel logistics, port and terminal management, and sustainability issues in maritime transport. Container Logistics and Maritime Transport emphasizes analytical methods and current optimization models to tackle challenging issues in maritime transport and logistics. This book takes a holistic approach to cover all the main segments of the container shipping supply chains to achieve an efficient and effective logistics service system across the entire global transport chain. Sustainability issues such as social concern and carbon emissions from shipping and ports are also discussed. Each maritime transport segment is addressed using an approach from qualitative/descriptive analytics to quantitative/prescriptive analytics. Cutting-edge optimization models are presented and explained to tackle various strategic, tactical, and operational planning problems. The book will help readers better understand operations management in global maritime container transport chain. It will also provide practical principles and effective techniques and tools for researchers to push forward the frontiers of knowledge and for practitioners to implement decision support systems. It will be directly relevant to academic courses related to maritime transport, maritime logistics, transport management, international shipping, port management, container shipping, container logistics, shipping supply chain, and international logistics.
