Is a dump truck considered a tractor trailer type vehicle?
Well, dump trucks range in size greatly. You can make a dump truck out of a one ton pickup truck, if you so wish. The US truck classification system lists a Class 8 truck as being anything over a 33,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. 33,000 lbs. is the max allowed for a two axle unit, so, basically, any tandem axle vehicle (and all tractor trailers) are going to be Class 8 trucks. However, the licence class in the USA is different. Most Class 7 and Class 8 dump trucks can be driven with a Class B CDL. However, if that dump truck is going to be towing a trailer rated at over 10,000 lbs., then the same Class A CDL required for a tractor trailer will be required to operate that combination of dump truck and trailer.
How much weight can a diesel truck carry?
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.
