Well, that depends on what it's pulling. The federal law allows a max weight of 80,000 lbs., including for double trailers. Some states will allow a truck pulling doubles to gross 92,000 within that state. They can haul as much weight legally as a tandem axle tractor-trailer can, so long as they remain within legal axle weights.
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.
the weight a semi can haul depends on the empty weight of the semi subtract the empty weight from 80thousand pounds. eg ; 80.000 minus empty weight 21.000 equals 59.000 pounds in this instance the cargo that could be legally hauled is 59000 pounds total semi weight which includes all tarps, straps ,equipment and load equal 80.000 pounds

There aren't any - that's determined by the vehicle's weight rating.
That depends on what type of dump truck, what type of commodity, how it is measured (by weight or by cubic yard), and the state laws regarding weight allowances. A Class 7 single axle dump truck can typically haul eight to ten cubic yards, or up to eight tons of payload. A tandem axle dump truck can typically haul 15 to 20 yards, and anywhere between 12 and 16 tons of payload, dependent on truck specifications and local laws.
The weight limit of a single axle trailer depends on several factors. The frame, axle type, tire rating, and the springs all have to be factored in.Smaller trailers could be rated at only a few hundred pounds, while heavier built units can haul full sized cars.
That's approximately 16,500 lbs., or 8-1/4 tons. In the US, a single axle Class 7 truck could haul it legally, provided they had a sufficient wheelbase to remain within bridge law and a light enough tare weight to not go over the legal GVWR. To stay on the safe side, a tandem axle straight truck or a single axle with an additional pusher or tag axle would probably be used.
Negative. That IS NOT a Class 7 truck... truck classification is based on the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, NOT the tare (empty) weight of the vehicle. That is a Class 8 truck. Other than that, it varies according to a number of factors. Wheelbase, what type of road it's on (a lot of states permit a higher weight on secondary roads), what type of axle the lift axle is (23k axle with dual tires vs. a 10k steerable pusher, etc), and so forth. What you're looking at, with that tare weight, most likely between 15 and 18 tons is what it could legally haul, depending on the above factors.
No. Loads which are oversize on account of weight must be single piece.
Subtract the actual weight of the truck from 26,000 lbs (GVWR) to get the weight you can haul. This is assuming you are talking about a single straight truck with no trailer. It would be best to actually weigh the vehicle with full fuel tanks to get the most accurate measurement. You can get a weight at most places that sell gravel, stones, etc.
The volume that a dump truck can hold depends on the size of the truck. You could say that there is no 'typical' dump truck. The horsepower, the axle weight, and the size of the box are a few of the features that determine how much the truck can hold and haul.
With a single axle trailer, they would be allowed a gross weight of 52,000 lbs for interstate use. Pulling a set of doubles, they're still limited to 80,000 lbs. gross weight by the federal regs, but some states will allow them 92,000 lbs. gross weight for intrastate use.
check your vehicle GVW usually listed on the door sticker. Then subtract the weight of your truck with an empty flat bed. the remainder will be what you can haul.
