truck and trailer 35000 pounds.
Maximum allowable weight by law is 80,000 lbs. The average weight of tractor and dry van combined empty weight is approximately 30,000 lbs. So, 50,000 lbs or less is the average load.
To determine the percentage of empty space in a square cleaning weight it dry. After weighing it dry saturate it with water.
This varies greatly depending on the type of truck. For example, a sleeper tractor weighs more than a day cab, a refrigerated van trailer weighs significantly more than a flatbed trailer, and so on. I drive a tandem axle day cab Sterling semi (this is a semi tractor with a total of 3 axles and no sleeper), and I pull a 53-foot dry van trailer (this is a box trailer without a refrigeration unit). When I have run it across a scale empty with about 120 gallons of fuel (this will also change weight as fuel weighs about 12 pounds per gallon), the whole truck weighs very close to 29,600 pounds. An empty semi can weigh as much as about 40,000 pounds, leaving room for 40,000 more of cargo before reaching maximum legal weight of 80,000.
The lightest semi tractor weighs about 13,900 pounds dry weight. These are usually for fairly light hauling with shorter trailers and distances. The lightest ones are made by International and Peterbuilt.
