Industrial revolution

The industrial revolution, which took set from the 18th to 19th centuries, was a period during rural societies in Europe and the industrial revolution, which took lay from the 18th to 19th centuries, was a period during rural societies in Europe.

 

Earlier to the Industrial Revolution, this began in Britain in the late 1700s.

 

Cloth industries, along with the development of the steam engine, played central roles in the industrial revolution, which also saw improved systems of transportation, communicating and banking. While industrialization brought about an increased volume and variety of manufactured goods and an improved standard of living for some, it also resulted in often grim employment and living conditions for the poor and working classes.

 

Most manufacturing was done in homes or small, rural shops, using hand tools or simple machines.

A number of factors contributed to Britain role as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.

As demand for British goods increased, merchants needed more cost-effective methods of production, which led to the rise of mechanization and the factory system.

 

The transportation industry also undergoes the significant transformation during the Industrial Revolution. American Robert Fulton built the first commercially successful steamboat, and by the mid-19th century, steamships were carrying freight across the Atlantic in the early 1800s.

The steam locomotive was also coming into apply, as steam powered ships were doing their debut.

Manchester railroad became the first to offer regular, timetabled passenger services and in 1830, Liverpool. Around 1820, Scots applied scientist John McAdam developed a new process for road construction, additionally. His technique, which became known as macadam, resulted in roads that were smoother, more durable and less muddy.

This truck was developed from industrial Revolution edge. it can carry weight more by increasing the size of the truck, which result so that to the need of more horsepower in order to drag the heavy goods or things. 

For the wheels, it have tyres to cover and protect the wheels and absorb the impact from the ground.

The driver and passenger zone contains air conditioner and radio for comfortable usage to the driver and the passenger. The seats are developed to be amore comfortable by using sponges and covered with the animal skin or the imitation leather.

The Materials in the truck such as bumper are made from steels, which is use as the driver protection from the exterior impacts and airbags are use to protect from the interior impacts, it have headlight for night time usage.

The back part of the truck is functioned by hydraulic system for easier usage and also for loading down the goods. it able support wight maximum 53 tons per 1 truck part.

Each truck has different functions for usage e.g. soil industry for constructions, moving cars, cargo shipping, moving living things and non-living things.  Big trucks has lots of advantages, because of being able to carry lots of things it time saving.  The truck has a large capacity making it convenient to carry lots of things at once at a time. With so many energy its able to carry both heavy and light things.  Another good reason it because it doesn't have to depend schedules like air shipping or train, you can change plans in case of emergency. 

 

Some if the disadvantages are that the time consumption intake in each delivery is much slower than the airmail and also the fedex which is well known throughout the world.  Not only the time consumption loss in each delivery duration, the space taken by the truck on the road gives other vehicle hard times and increases the traffic jams due to the large space intake and also the truck can travels really slow because there is a speed limit law.

MEDIEVAL CARRIAGE

A carriage is a wheeled vehicle for people, usually horse-drawn. The carriage is designed for a private transport, but some are also used to transport goods. It may be light, smart and fast or heavy, large and comfortable.

Carriages may be enclosed or open, depending on the type. The hood or the top cover of the carriage is mostly flexible and designed to be folded back when needed. Such a folding top is called a bellows top or calash. The top, roof or second-story section of a closed carriage was called an imperial. A closed carriage may have side windows called quarter lights as well as windows in the doors, therefore a glass coach. On the forepart of an open carriage, mud or snow will thrown up by the heels of the horses, so they have a screen of wood or leather called a dashboard to catch water. The dashboard or carriage top sometimes has a projecting sidepiece called a wing. A foot iron or footplate may serve as a carriage step.

A carriage driver sits on a box or perch, usually elevated and small. When at the front it is known as a dickey box. A footman might use a small platform at the rear called a footboard or a seat called a rumble behind the body. Some carriages have a handy seat called a jump seat. Some seats had a connected backrest called a lazy back.

The shafts of a carriage were called limbers. A tough elastic wood of various trees called Lancewood was often used for carriage shafts. The end of the tongue of a carriage is hanging from the collars of the harness by a bar called the yoke. At the end of a trace, a loop called a cockeye attaches to the carriage.

In some carriage types the body is perched from several leather straps called braces or thorough braces, attached to or serving as springs.

Roman Chariot

The Romans were influenced directly by the Greeks after they conquered mainland Greece in 146 BC. In the Roman Empire, chariots were not used for warfare, but for chariot racing, especially in circuses, or for victory processions, when they could be drawn by as many as ten animals that can drive the chariots. There were four divisions of charioteers, the person who lead the chariots, determined by the color of their costumes: the red, blue, green and white teams. The main center of chariot racing was the Circus Maximus, set in the valley between the Palatine and Aventine Hills in Rome. The track could hold 12 chariots, and the two sides of the track were separated by a raised center name the spina. Chariot races continued to enjoy great popularity in Byzantine times even after the Olympic Games had been legal, until their decline after the Nika riots in the 6th century. The starting gates were known as the Carceres.

An ancient Roman car or chariot drawn by four horses abreast together with the horses drawing it was called a Quadriga, from the Latin quadrijugi, which means the team of four. The term sometimes meant instead the four horses without the chariot or the chariot alone. A three-horse chariot, or the three-horse team drawing it, was a triga, from trijugi, means the team of three.

Greek Chariots

Box Chariots

These early Achaean small box-chariots began to change in terms of design from the Near Eastern type. The four-spoke wheels seem to be certain throughout this period but it was made stronger and tougher. The axe was set near the center of the cab and a pole was also placed horizontally attached to the upper central part of the cab. The cab itself was framed in steam-bent wood may covered with ox-hide or wickerwork.

Quadrant Chariots

A rare type of chariot, known only from few representations, is the quadrant-chariot. It appears to have had a D-shaper floor; its siding consisted of what were probably heat-bend rails, the rounded profile approaching the quadrant of a circle. Also in this type of chariot the sides were probably covered with ox-hide or wickerwork.

Dual Chariots

 The dual-chariot was one of the most used chariots in the Aegean area. It is design by semi-circular extensions attached to the back of the chariot box. These extensions were unknown outside the Greek-influenced areas. They were probably made, also, from heat-bend wood with either textile or ox-hide stretched across the frame. The box also seems to have had the same covering, which enclosed it on three sides.
