Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

MURPHY Brothers Ltd of Melton Road, Thurmaston have completed their first body using 19mm (0.75in) Glason it panels. It will be used by SCI Transport services of Leicester for the removal of computers.

Built to SCI's own specification the Luton body has internal rubbing rails which double as fixing rails on three sides.

To accomodate the point loading imposed by this type of cargo, the floor is reinforced with a double skin of hardwood, while the roof is made of translucent grp.

With a Ratcliff three-ton capacity tail-lift fitted at the rear, the body is mounted on the chassis of a Dodge G-1161 with a 7.3 (24ft) wheelbase.

A removable winching point can be screwed into the chassis, through the floor, at the front end of the body.

By using the large grp-faced plywood panels 7.3m x 2.4 (24 x 8ft) on each side provides a 44 cum (1,500cu ft) internal volume. Finish is easily cleaned and knock-resistant, but can easily be repaired if damaged.
