I am not sure of your question, but if you mean how do they know how strong the transom needs to be to hold an outboard engine, here is the general process. They know how big an engine they are going to put on the boat and how much the engine weighs. An engineer can then determine what the forces are on the transom. From that the engineer can calculate how thick the transom needs to be depending on how it is made. Some are solid fiberglass, some are wood sandwiched between two layers of fiberglass. Some are metal with wood behind the metal. They can also make it a little thinner by putting supports from the hull to the transom inside the boat.
On the other hand, do you mean how much weight can they put on a transom without sinking the boat? An engineer can determine how far a boat will sink in the water for every added pound. A transom needs to be high enough so that water doesn't come in when the wake (the wave behind the boat) catches up with the boat when it stops, Usually this is about 20 inches for big outboard engines, sometimes a little more. So after deciding how big an engine the boat will have (there are rules for how much horsepower you can have on an outboard boat) they then use the weight of the engine to determine how low in the water the boat will sit.
