2. Traditional rigid frame dock
shelters are virtually
unchanged in design and
materials from the original
1951 model
While relatively
inexpensive, steel, wood
and fiberglass structure is
easy to damage, and costly
to repair
Severe damage to side
frames and steel bumpers
can result from the first
trailer impact

impact
