Subject: transport unit packages gen.
Пожалуйста, помогите перевести transport unit packages, transport packages в следующем контексте:

All *transport unit packages* exceeding any of the following limit of overall dimensions and gross weights, are classified as Heavy Lift or Oversized Equipment (HLO), differently as General Cargo (GC) materials:
• Weight Tons 24,00
• Length Mt 13,00
• Width Mt 2.50
• Height Mt 2,50

All *transport packages* containing cargo subjected to IMO/ADR/IATA Regulations, are classified as hazardous/radioactive materials (Dangerous Goods), usually General Cargo (GC).

Заранее спасибо

Overall it's badly-written, so 'transport unit packages' may be badly-written as well. Containers are sometimes called 'transport units'/'transportation units', so could it mean 'packages to go into containers', I wonder?

The next bit should read:

• Weight (tons) 24.00
• Length (metres) 13.00
• Width (metres) 2.50
• Height (metres) 2.50

Decimals are always written with a full-stop(.) in English, not a comma(,) , hence they're referred to as 'decimal points'. 'Mt' is the wrong abbreviation for 'metre(s)' (UK)/'meter(s)' (US); it should be just 'm'.

.... and it's 'subject to' here, not 'subjected to'.

johnstephenson, you are right, the whole document is badly written. All the way I guess rather than translate :)

Смотрим словарь и видим в нем «грузовое место»

Генеральный груз не забываем использовать наравне со словами «тяжеловес» и «длинномер»

Overall в данном случае переводится словом «наибольший»

When I said 'Overall it's badly-written' I meant that the English in general was badly-written; I wasn't referring to the word 'overall' which appears in the text.

**metres**....
I hate inches and feet, but I love to write "meters" :)

I hate shilling and tuppence and guinea
I hate yard and furlong and mile
Ненавижу пуды и полушки
И возбешиавет мя верста
