  2. Baggage allowance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baggage_allowance

    The recommendations for checked baggage are: advised maximum weight 23 kg (50.7 lbs), weight limit 32 kg (70.6 lbs), advised maximum size 158 cm (62.2 in) length + width + height, limit 203 cm (nearly 80 in). The limit of 23 kg is present because of similar health and safety regulations limits. Because of the wide variation in hand/carry-on ...

    56 cm × 45 cm × 25 cm: 63 L 126 cm IATA guideline size. British Airways (one bag plus one bag up to 40 cm × 30 cm × 15 cm, up to 23 kg each); [41] EasyJet (one bag, no special weight limit, not guaranteed to travel in cabin); [42] Finnair (one bag, max. 8 kg plus one personal item) [43] Aegean Airlines (one bag up to 8 kg); [44]

  4. Federal Bridge Gross Weight Formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Bridge_Gross...

    In effect, the formula reduces the legal weight limit for shorter trucks with fewer axles (see table below). For example, a 25-foot (7.6 m) three-axle dump truck would have a gross weight limit of 54,500 pounds (24,700 kg), instead of 80,000 pounds (36,000 kg), which is the standard weight limit for 63-foot (19.2 m) five-axle tractor-trailer.

  5. Dump truck - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dump_truck

    This increases the gross weight allowed under the federal bridge formula, which sets standards for truck size and weight. Depending on the vehicle length and axle configuration, Superdumps can be rated as high as 80,000 pounds (36,287 kg) GVW and carry 26 short tons (23.6 t; 23.2 long tons) of payload or more. When the truck is empty or ready ...

  6. Center of gravity of an aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_gravity_of_an...

    The amount a weight must be moved can be found by using the following formula shift distance = (total weight * cg change) / weight shifted Example: 1500 lb * 33.9 in = 50,850 moment (airplane) 100 lb * 68 in = 8,400 moment (baggage) cg = 37 in = (50,850 + 8,400) / 1600 lb (1/2 in out of cg limit)

  7. Maximum takeoff weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_takeoff_weight

    Takeoff weight components. The maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) or maximum gross takeoff weight (MGTOW) or maximum takeoff mass (MTOM) of an aircraft, also known as the maximum structural takeoff weight or maximum structural takeoff mass, [1] is the maximum weight at which the pilot is allowed to attempt to take off, due to structural or other limits.

  8. Axle load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axle_load

    The standard rail weight for British railways is now 113 lb/yd (56.1 kg/m). Before the 1990s, most diesel locomotives were built to a maximum axle load of 19 long tons (19.3 tonnes; 21.3 short tons) so the maximum locomotive weight was 76 long tons (77.2 tonnes; 85.1 short tons) for a four-axle locomotive and 114 long tons (115.8 tonnes; 127.7 short tons) for a six-axle one.

  9. Wing loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_loading

    At Mach 0.85 and 0.7 lift coefficient, a wing loading of 50 lb/sq ft (240 kg/m 2) can reach a structural limit of 7.33g up to 15,000 feet (4,600 m) and then decreases to 2.3g at 40,000 feet (12,000 m). With a wing loading of 100 lb/sq ft (490 kg/m 2) the load factor is twice smaller and barely reaches 1g at 40,000 ft (12,000 m). [15]
