Example 1B
For example, if a person weighing 176
lbs (80 kg) no w enters the same
vehicle (bringing the number of occu-
pants to two), the calculations are as
follows:
1. Calculate the total weight.
2. Calculat e the available load capa-
city.
3. The total weight now exceeds the
capacity weight by 81 lbs (37 kg), so
the ca rgo weight must be reduced by
81 lbs (37 kg) or more.
Example 2A
Vehicle capacity weight of the vehicle
is 800 lbs (363 kg), which is indicated
on the vehicle placard with the state-
ment “The combined weight of occu-
pants and cargo should never exceed
363 kg or 800 lbs”.
For example, the vehicle has one
occupant weighing 165 lbs (75 kg)
plus cargo weighing 265 lbs (120 kg).
In addition, the vehicle is fitted with a
trailer hitch weighing 22 lbs (10 kg), to
which is attached a trailer weighing
1,764 lbs (800 kg). 10% of the trailer
weight is applied to the trailer tongue
(i.e. Tongue load = 176 lbs (80 kg)).
1. Calculate the total weight.
