That'll be dependent on a number of factors, including your local state laws, frame length, type of dump body, tare weight of the vehicle, etc.
Under North Carolina's complicated bridge laws, a tri axle can typically haul 13-15 tons. Some states allow for higher weight tolerances.
12 ton
17 tons
Dump trucks come in many sizes and configurations. Additionally, vehicle weight laws vary greatly between countries. We would have to have some idea of what configuration and jurisdiction you had in mind. Configurations of dump trucks would include single axle, tandem axle, tandem axle with twin steer, tri-axle, quad axle, quint axle, centipede, tractor-trailer end dump, etc.

i believe a tri axlw will hold about 14 yards of top soil A Tri-Axle will hold up to20 - 25 yards of soil depending on weight. A Tandem will hold about 14 - 17 yards of soil. Tri-axle can hold about 30 yards of mulch. How much it will hold, depends on the size of the box. I can 'legally' load 20 yds of 'pit-run' (gravel) in a 24 foot tandem trailer (in my province).

Typical commercial US dump trucks are double-axle dually setups carrying about 10 cubic yards of material, which is about 10 short tons for typical materials like gravel or soil. A big, heavy-duty triple-axle model might reach 15 tons. A single-axle model based on a passenger truck might only hold 3 tons. A side-dump semi trailer might hold 30 tons. Non-street legal ore transfer trucks hold up to 400 tons!
Well, that depends... on what the commodity is, on what the bed dimensions are, and on whether or not you're concerned about weight. How much a tri-axle can hold weight-wise varies by state, and also by what type of axle and wheels is on the pusher. 16 to 20 yards should be about in the right range, though.
12 or 14. Depends if lift axle has dual tires or not.
It varies from state to state, and will also be dependent on the tare weight of the truck. I can tell you that, in North Carolina, 13 to 15 tons is the norm for a tri-axle dump truck.
How many cubic yards will my dump truck hold it is 16x5.5x8
Dump trucks typically don't haul liquid commodities, unless you're thinking of snow removal operations where they'll be outfitted with prewet or calcium chloride tanks. Even with that in mind, you need to remember that there are many different sizes of dump truck out there. 15 cubic yards is "typical" for a tandem axle dump truck.
