A rigid truck and full trailer are articulated inside the cargo area length, so a semi-trailer can have a longer continuous cargo area. Because of this, a semi-trailer can haul longer objects, (logs, pipe, beams, railway track). This depends on the legislation; in some European countries, a full trailer can be as long as a semi-trailer.
The first modular self-propelled trailers were built in the 1970s. In the early 1980s, heavy haulage company Mammoet [6] refined the concept into the form seen today. [7] They set the width of the modules at 2.44 m, so the modules would fit on an ISO container flatrack. They also added 360° steering. [8]
