FIELD: transport engineering; carrying and discharging of loose and large size materials. SUBSTANCE: vehicle with dumping body has chassis supporting the dumping body with rectangular perimetrical frame and open truncated container made of flexible material and connected with frame through its upper edge. Frame is adapted for angular movement between horizontal position at transportation and tilted down position at discharging the cargo. Container has semiround cross-section in suspended state. Dumping mechanisms are mounted on chassis to provided displacement of frame between two indicated positions. Special arrangements are located below container to control shape of container. support lover longitudinal wall of container at dumping and ensure its tilting downwards into inclined position.
