01
CARGO GEOMETRY
Dimensions & weight
Length, width, height, gross weight and centre of gravity form the engineering basis for transport and handling.
- Verified dimensions
- Gross / unit weight
- Centre of gravity
Engineered moves
Project cargo.
Engineered to move.
Oversized, heavy and non-standard cargo should not move on assumptions. Aashmaan connects cargo facts, engineering, route feasibility, permissions, assigned resources and site handover into one movement plan.
Movement basis
Cargo facts
drive the plan.
Equipment, routing and handling should follow verified cargo data. The movement basis starts with the physical cargo, site interfaces and the constraints capable of stopping execution.
02
HANDLING
Lift & restraint
Lift points, rigging, lashing and handling restrictions should be understood before equipment is selected.
- Lift / support points
- Rigging requirements
- Lashing strategy
03
ROUTE & SITE
Physical feasibility
Gate widths, turns, gradients, bridges, utilities, laydown areas and final site interfaces form part of the movement design.
- Route restrictions
- Access geometry
- Site constraints
04
AUTHORITY
Permits & windows
Movement permissions, escorts, access controls and timing windows should be confirmed against the proposed move.
- Permit dependencies
- Escort requirements
- Movement windows
MOVEMENT BASIS
Engineering input
Equipment follows the cargo.
Trailer geometry, axle configuration, lifting resources and field support should be selected from verified cargo and route data.
DIMENSIONS
Verified before planning
WEIGHT
Confirmed per movement unit
CoG
Recorded where relevant
LIFT POINTS
Defined before rigging
ROUTE
Surveyed against envelope
RESOURCES
Assigned after verification
Project control desk
Know what is verified.
Know what is holding.
Complex movements need one operating picture showing cargo, engineering, route, authority, resources and execution readiness before release.

Route engineering
The route is part
of the cargo plan.
Oversized movements are shaped by the narrowest physical and operational interface between origin and site — not simply by distance.

Project pre-assessment
Give us the cargo facts.
We will build the questions.
A useful project review starts with enough physical and commercial information to identify engineering, route, authority and resource questions before mobilisation.

Project logistics questions
Engineer the questions.
Before the move.
Early cargo, site and timing information helps expose issues that can otherwise appear after resources have already been mobilised.
Cargo description, dimensions, weight, quantity, centre of gravity where relevant, lift or support information, origin, destination, required timing and available drawings provide a useful starting point.
Equipment selection should be coordinated with verified cargo data and route feasibility. For non-standard moves, these decisions are connected rather than treated separately.
Project-specific lifting, handling and transport requirements can be coordinated as part of the movement plan. Suitable resources are verified against the actual requirement.
Depending on the movement, the review may consider access geometry, turns, gradients, road and bridge conditions, overhead clearances, utilities, movement windows, permits, escorts and final site access.
Yes. Where required, the movement can connect with freight, customs interfaces, port or terminal handling, inland transport and final site handover.
Mobilisation should follow confirmation of critical cargo facts, movement basis, route feasibility, required authority and suitable assigned resources for the specific project.
