Summary

Introduction

The market of special vehicles is one of the fastest growth automotive areas. Many customers require untypical properties of the cars or trucks. The scope of the analysis was limited into wheeled platform designed to transport loads. These type of vehicles have large scope of loads, from general cargo to concrete. It can be designed, developed, produced and installed truck bodies and trailers for any kind of use according to special and individual requirements. Requirements for special vehicles are determined objective function and very often significantly different from the mass-produced vehicles. Often they are in conflict with the requirements, standards, or even type approval regulations [3, 4]
