diepladers
Diepladers are a type of semi-trailer designed to transport heavy and oversized loads with a low loading height. They feature a low deck, multiple axles for weight distribution, and a gooseneck or drawbar to connect to a tractor unit. The low deck height increases stability and enables the transport of tall equipment, while the axle configurations (ranging from two to several axles, often with steerable or remotely controlled axles) improve load distribution and maneuverability. Loading ramps, hydraulic systems and sometimes adjustable deck height are common features.
Diepladers come in various configurations, including fixed low-deck trailers and extendable or modular platforms. Variants include
