Описание: Excerpt from Railroad Transportation of Rough Rice in Louisiana and Texas: A Study of Facilities and Equipment

Sacks of rough rice, each weighing approximately 162 pounds, are loaded by manual labor with hand trucks or forklift trucks. Ten or more men are employed, depending upon the height of the stacked sacks in the flat warehouse and the distance the rice is hand-trucked to the railroad boxcar. Two to 4 of these men break the stacks and place 4 sacks on the hand truck (fig. Two to 4 other men are inside the boxcar to unload the hand truck and arrange the load in the car (fig. Other members of the crew are assigned to hand trucks or forklifts as needed to keep the loaders and unloaders busy. The forklift truck replaces 2 or 3 hand trucks by hauling 8 to 12 sacks on each trip. However, the same number of loaders and unloaders are required. Sample studies showe that approximately 35 sacks were loaded in cars per man-hour employed, using either the forklift or hand trucks.
