    Default Looking for tendem weight diagram

    I am getting back into trucking after a break. I used to have a worksheet that showed some slide hints like average weight shifted by moving tandems and some common length allowed.

    Anyone know where I can find something like this again?

    Thanks,

    Thomas Knight

    Generally speaking..... 250 to 300 lbs per hole. A worksheet won't work real well with a 53' trailer unless it is loaded "ideally".....and that will rarely happen. Compliance with certain states 5th wheel length laws will negate worksheet solutions.
    Forrest Gump was right....and some people literally strive to prove it.....everyday. Strive not to be one of "them".... And "lemmings" are a dime a dozen!

    Remember: The "truth WILL set you free"! If it doesn't "set you free"....."it will trap you in the cesspool of your own design".

    They lost my original "avatar"....oh well.
