The weight capacity of a barge can vary depending on its size and design, but typical barges can hold anywhere from a few hundred tons to over 10,000 tons of cargo. Specialized heavy-lift barges can have even higher weight capacities, sometimes exceeding 20,000 tons. It is important to consider factors such as buoyancy, draft, and load distribution when determining how much weight a barge can safely carry.

What is the weight of light barge?
The weight of a light barge can vary depending on its size and design. On average, a light barge can weigh anywhere from a few tons to several hundred tons.
What weight of cargo could a barge carry if it was 100ft long x 25 ft wide x 10 ft high and it was lowered 4 ft into the water?
The weight of the barge plus cargo will equal the weight of the water it displaces. If the barge sinks to a depth of 4' then the volume of barge under water is 4 x 25 x 100 = 10,000 cf. This will also be the volume of water displaced. Water weighs 62.4 lbs per cf so 10,000 cf weighs 624000 lbs. This will be the cargo weight plus the weight of the barge. No way to separate the two weights, but the barge weight is probably a small portion of the total.
A barge is 10.0 m wide and 60.0 m long and has vertical sides. It is floating in fresh water A load of 6.00 MN is placed on the barge. How much does its hull sink into the water?
6 MegaNewtons is the weight of (6 x 106 / 9.8) kilograms of water, equivalent toa volume of (6 x 106 / 9.8) liters of water, or (6,000/9.8) cubic meters of water.That's the additional displacement the barge has to achieve as soon as the load drops,in order to float with the additional weight.The added displacement is (10 x 60 x D) cubic meters, where 'D' is the added depth.(10 x 60 x D) = (6 x 103 / 9.8)D = 6 x 103 / (9.8 x 10 x 60)D = 1.02 meters (rounded)
How much weight does the shamwow hold?
Shamwow can hold about 10 times its weight in liquid, making it a very absorbent material.
Why barge of metal can it floats in water?
A barge made of metal can float in water because of its shape and displacement. The barge is designed to displace a volume of water that is greater than its own weight, allowing it to float. Additionally, the buoyant force acting on the barge provides the necessary upward force to keep it afloat.

How much cargo can a 500 ton wooden barge hold that is 250 feet long and 70 feet wide and 18 feet deep?
Assuming that your barge weight was 500 long tons, lightship, and by 18 feet deep, you meant from the keel to the deck, you could theoretically load the barge with 8,439 metric tons, which would completely lower your deck to the waterline. If you wanted a draft of 9 feet then you could load 3,976 metric tons.
