Device and method for transporting a load

A transport device, comprising:

• a first movable structure configured to support and transport a building;
• a first drive device;
• a first motor configured to drive said first drive device;
• a second drive device;
• a second motor configured to drive said second drive device;
• a first input control device configured to allow a first operator to direct the movement of said transport device;
• a first global positioning receiver;
• a first control system configured to calculate the desired heading and velocity of the transport device based on inputs from the first operator and the first global positioning receiver.

A method of transporting a load, including the steps of

• positioning a load on a transport structure,
• engaging the controls to move said transport structure,
• calculating the desired heading and velocity of the transport device based on inputs from an operator and a global positioning receiver,
• articulating at least two wheels of said transport structure, and
• implementing differential steering using said at least two wheels to achieve the desired heading and velocity of the transport device.
