What type of truck and trailer? For all I know, you could be talking about a Ford F650 and a single axle utility trailer. If you're referring to Class 8 vehicles, something like a single axle tractor towing a single axle trailer would be allowed an interstate GVW of 52,000 lbs.
Depends on the truck's specs. A US beverage distribution truck hauling a single axle trailer would be permitted between 54,000 and 56,000 lbs gross weight, whereas single axle tractors pulling tridem trailers in Europe and permitted a gross weight of 44 metric tons (about 97,000 lbs.)
What's the configuration? For a single axle straight truck, the allowed interstate gross weight is 33,000 lbs. For a tandem axle straight truck, it's 54,000 lbs. For a tractor-trailer, it's 80,000 lbs.
A tandem truck usually refers to the amount of axles on the trailer or tractor. A single drive axle on a tractor would be referred to as a single, or the same for one axle on the trailer. I have seen it referred to the amount of tires on the end of an axle. When there are two tires on the end of the axle, that would be referred to as a dual, not a tandem.
You need to be more specific about the configuration. Is a single axle straight truck, a tandem axle straight truck, a tandem axle straight truck with additional lift axles, a tractor trailer...?
Not enough information to answer. What type, is it a straight truck or tractor trailer, how many axles, what class vehicle, etc. would be needed to give you an answer. With weight laws in the US, a single drive axle truck rated at 26,000 lbs. gross vehicle weight could carry up to five tons, while a Class 7 single drive axle truck rated at 33,000 - 35,000 lbs. could carry up to eight tons. A tandem axle straight truck would be in the vicinity of 12 to 13 tons, and a standard, five axle, semi tractor and trailer can range from 23 to 25 tons of legal payload.

In the UK, the maximum axle weight for a trailer axle on a 6 axle trailer is 8500 kg. In addition it must have road friendly suspension. With a 5 axle vehicle the maximum axle weight is 11.5 tonnes.

There are several types of trucks which drive OTR. For a single axle expedited truck, it's 33,000 lbs. For a tandem axle expedited truck, it's 54,000 lbs. For either a standard five axle tractor-trailer combination or a set of A-doubles, it's 80,000 lbs (although some states will allow a set of A-doubles to run 92,000 lbs).
It can vary according to the configuration of the trailer axles. A straightforward tanndem, with no spread, is permitted 34.000 lbs. on the trailer axles, which would allow the combination to gross out at 66,000 lbs. A 10 ft. spread axle, on the other hand, is allowed to weigh 40,000 on the trailer axles, which would permit the combination to gross 72,000 lbs.
