==Use== A common usage would be for the slip sheet to be placed on a pallet and loaded with boxes or bags. This loaded pallet might be going to a warehouse for storage: most slip sheets are not rigid enough to support loads in warehouse racks. When needed, the load can be called to the loading dock where a special fork lift truck will grab the lip of the slip sheet and pull it onto a flat steel platform. Some roller platforms are also available.<ref>{{cite journal | last =Feng | first =Xiaomei | title =Strength Analysis of Main Girder of the Roller Forks | journal = Advanced Materials Research | volume =645 | issue = | pages =482β485 | date =2013 | doi =10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.645.482 | s2cid =109772005 | url = 1 https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/document?repid=rep1&type=pdf&doi=78004927b22bc0d36c2fd2b79c09404c4e4cea26 | access-date = 18 March 2023}}</ref> <ref> {{cite patent | country =US | number =US2013/0195592A1 | title =PUSH-PULLDEVICE,FORK-LIFTTRUCK AND METHOD FOR DISPLACING GOODS | pubdate =2013 |inventor1-last=Meijer |inventor1-first=W | url = https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/00/18/b8/0b68d15bbde715/US20130195592A1.pdf }} </ref> The slip sheet and load are then loaded onto a truck, rail car, of intermodal container and placed on the floor. This reduces the volume and weight of the pallet for shipment. At the end of the shipment, similar fork trucks with puch-pull attachments grab the loads and place them on pallets for further storage, distribution, or use,
