Abstract
Abstract Self carrying platform of the sandwich type forming a closed goods accommodating space, preferably for refrigerator/freezer trailers, comprising a core (15) and surface layers (16) laminated thereto. The surface layers consist of metal plates and the core of a constructional cellular plastics on PVC-basis. At least one mounting plate (17) for a wheel shaft arrangement/demountable body framing is adhesively attached to the core.
