The length of the trailer and truck is immaterial.

How long is a class b truck?
Class B is a drivers license class, not a truck classification. A Class B CDL is for single vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating in excess of 26,000 lbs. - and the allowed length for this maxes out at 45 feet - or a combination with a Gross Combination Weight Rating of more than 26,000 lbs., provided the vehicle in tow (i.e., the trailer) does not have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating in excess of 10,000 lbs.
How much can a truck gross weight with a 34 ft trailer?
Well, that's going to depend on the Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings of the power unit and of the trailer. If it was a tractor-trailer with a trailer that short, then it wouldn't be able to gross 80k - in order to do that, the bridge between the drive tandems on the power unit and the tandems on the trailer must be at least 35 feet - a length greater than the trailer you described. You'd need some specifics about the tow vehicle and the trailer in order for this question to be answered accurately. We only know a trailer length - we don't know the GVWR of the trailer, and nothing about the tow unit, which could be anything from a Class 1 truck (0 - 6000 lbs. GVWR) up to a Class 8 truck (GVWR in excess of 33,000 lbs).
