4.1 Truck/Counterweight Requirements

The wheel of the truck (or other vehicle) must have a minimum axle weight or tandem axle weight of 10,000 lbs. (4,535kg) of force
exerted onto the wheel well baseplates. Axle weight is the weight placed on the road by all wheels of one axle; Tandem axle weight
is the total weight placed on the road by two or more consecutive axles
whose centers are spaced more than 40 inches (1.016m) apart, but not
more than 96 inches (2.438m) apart. The Federal tandem-axle weight
limit on the Interstate System is 34,000 lbs. (15,422kg). The baseplate
has been tested to readily withstand up to 20,000 lbs. (9,072kg) axle
weight on the ramps and wheel well. However, higher loading may be
is visibly damaged or deformed.
Wheel diameter is recommended to be less than 6 ft. (1.8m) in diameter
with an overall width of less than 36 in. (0.91m). For vehicles with wheel
that the wheel is retained within the wheel well and that the SkyORB is
stable and can be safely used with the alternative wheel size.
Truck ground clearance should be no less than 4-1/2 inches (115mm) to
clear the ramps, wheel well, and hardware.
Any vehicle may be used to secure the SkyORB system as long as it meets
the above requirements. Special precautions must be taken with non-wheeled
vehicles, especially tracked vehicles.
