Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

LASH (Lighter Aboard Ship) and RO-RO (Roll On-Roll Off) are both innovative material-handling methods used in the shipping industry. LASH involves the use of barge-like vessels that are loaded with cargo in smaller ports and then transported to larger ports for transfer onto bigger ships. RO-RO ships, on the other hand, are designed to allow vehicles to be driven directly onto the vessel, making it easier to load and unload goods.
