Before handling the panels, their assembling position, as well as the way they are
transported in the truck, must be considered. Taking this into account, the following cases
can be found:
a) Horizontally-assembled panels
These panels are transported on a trestle (although
in exceptional cases
bottom and floor
plates may also be transported lying flat on the truck bed), and they have two inserts in the
long edge where a crane can be attached to lift them off the truck and lay them flat on the
ground.
Once on the ground, or on the truck bed itself if they are transported flat, they should be lifted
using the 4 inserts in the panel and placed in their final positions.

b) Vertically-assembled panels
These panels are transported on a trestle, and they have 2 inserts in the long edge and 2 in
the short edge for their handling.
If they are transported horizontally
(figure 3.13), they must be lifted by the long
edge and laid onto the ground (figure 3.14) in order to transfer the hooks to the short
edge and lift the panel to the vertical position as required for its final position
(figure 3.15).
