Articulated dumpers belong to the category of off-road, all-wheel drive vehicles highly adaptable to rough terrain. The distinguishing feature of an articulated dumper is a hinge between the cab and the dump box, which divides the vehicle into two basic sections: the power unit (generally called the tractor) at the front and the dump body (also referred as the hauler or trailer) at the rear. Unlike in case of traditional semi-trailer trucks, the power unit of an articulated dump truck is a permanent fixture and not a separable vehicle.
