Depends on configuration. Five tons for a single with a GVWR of 26,000 is about normal, eight tons for a single axle with a GVWR of 33,000 is about the norm, 13-14 tons interstate and 15 tons on secondary roads is typical for a tandem axle dump truck, a tri-axle maybe 16 or 17 tons, 18 Interstate and 20 secondary for a quad, up to 25 for a centipede, superdump, or tractor-trailer end dump.
