After other general containers all loaded on board, the crane lifts the empty flat rack onto the ship and lays it down, then lifts the cargo onto the large flat "pallet", lashing and securing on the ship. This kind of cargo is generally placed on the uppermost layer below the deck, and no more containers can be stacked on top.
