Depends where you are, as weight allowances are much different in various countries. For a tandem axle straight truck in the US, the max weight would be 54,000 lbs. In a dump truck, that typically equates to 13 - 15 US short tons of payload (dependent on the tare weight of the vehicle, of course). If you're referring to a tractor pulling a trailer, a standard five axle unit (steer axle, tandem drive axles, tandem or spread trailer axles) would be allowed a max gross weight of 80,000 lbs. under the federal bridge law, which, depending on the empty weight of the vehicle, could typically permit you anywhere from 20 to 25 US short tons of payload.

In idle? The configuration of the tractor has nothing to do with determining that.
