Abstract: A plurality of arches are supported in longitudinally spaced, transversely extending, vertical positions. A plurality of fabric panels are each connected between a corresponding pair of adjacent arches. A pair of arcuately extending cables are connected to corresponding opposite end portions of each fabric panel so that the ends of the cables terminate adjacent the lower ends of the corresponding arches. A plurality of base mechanisms are each attached to and support a lower end of a corresponding arch. The opposite ends of each cable are threaded through and guided by adjacent base mechanisms so that they can be pulled together with a winch to transversely tension the corresponding fabric panel.

Abstract: A system and method for managing containerized freight is disclosed. The system generates a 3-D view of a containerized freight terminal that is rendered on a display. The 3-D view includes rendered scale models of all the containers, vessels, buildings and equipment within the freight yard and according to stored information relating to such. The rendered 3-D view is updated as changes are made to the stored information and according to user input related to the desired point of view and perspective. The rendered scale models may be selectively visually coded or displayed according to pre-determined criteria.
