Capacity of trucks

**boybi** · February 29th, 2008 05:09 PM

Gaano ba kabigat ang kayang hakutin ng mga Isuzu Forward (6-wheeler) and 10-wheeler trucks? Sa registration, 4,000kg ang capacity ng Forward, while 10,000kg naman sa 10-wheeler. Yan lang ba talaga ang kaya ng mga trucks na yan? Parang sobrang liit naman ng capacity nila kung ganun?

IMO boss boybi, Yun lang siguro ang allowed/limit ng manufacturer at LTO. pero dami ko nakikitang trucks na may kargang solid na bakal (katakot tumabi dito sa mga ‘to baka mag slide nakow

) halos unat na mga leaf spring sa likod, usad pagong at todo usok sa hirap pero sige pa rin.

From what I know, that the safe limit. Pero, alam ko na may mga truckers na nagoveload ng double ng rated capacity. Unsafe, pero alam niyo naman dito sa Pinas.........

Sabi sakin ng kakilala ko na dating may trucking business, ganito daw ang style para kumita. If memory serves, FC nila nasa around 2km/ltr.

Are those really the manufacturer's set load limit? Hindi ba parang ang baba yata ng limit kung ganun? I need a truck kasi that can load up to at least 7-8 tons. Feeling ko kasi kaya na ito ng Forward. Parang overkill kasi kung mag 10-wheeler ako, and almost twice the price pa ang 10-wheeler and siguradong mas malakas pa sa fuel consumption. Pero kung talagang ganun kababa ang load limit ng Forward, I will be forced to get a 10-wheeler.

sir boybi kayang kaya ng forward 7-10 tons as in the specs ng bagong isuzu forwrd. usually sa regitration yan lang linalagay so that makatipid sa registration. based sa gross weight ang computation.

So kung magsakay ako ng 7 tons sa forward, hindi ba ako mahuhuli na overloading since 4 tons lang ang capacity na nakalagay sa registration?

now that is a hard question to answer. maybe you can ask the LTO regarding that. I think they have a per axle load computation on how heavy the load a 6wheeler truck can carry. pa iba iba kase ang regulations nila. dito sa amin ang ibang enforcing officers ang registration ang base ang iba per axle load/engine capacity.

May natanungan akong driver ng Isuzu Forward na nagdedeliver sa isang customer ko. They've been loading 12 tons using the Forward! So kayang kaya pala!

Also, ang labo din ng mga capacity marking/LTO registration na 10 tons lang ang net capacity ng 10-wheeler trucks. E yung mga nagsasakay ng 20-ft container vans, 20+ tons ang laman ng mga yun.
