load-carrying

In towing applications, for example, the biggest consideration is stability and load-carrying capacity.

Porters of the variety that carried our bags appeared to be much higher up the load-carrying/social order than most of the hundreds of porters we would encounter.

By “softening” the modern truck suspension to meet the requirements of new owners, manufacturers have compromised load-carrying capability for those of us who really need it.

Dussutour, whose earlier work showed that leafcutter ants organize themselves into separate and tightly-regulated streams of load-carrying and unburdened individuals when traveling in opposite directions on wide paths, was curious about their dynamics on narrow paths such as the tip of a treebranch — the ant equivalent of a one-lane road.

Be sure the tire has adequate load-carrying capacity at these lower pressures.

“My frustration is that I picked a 3/4-ton Suburban so I would have extra load-carrying capability,” Doug told me.

As cars get heavier and consumer' expectations for handling, acceleration and load-carrying capacity increase, the life expectancy for tires decreases.

They went to the mines of West Virginia, because war needs coal; they went to the industries of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, because war needs ships and iron; they went to the automobiles of Detroit and the load-carrying of Chicago; and they went to East St. Louis.

Then the engineers began generating the drawings that graphically display the load-carrying stresses on a proposed structure, which in this bizarre building varied enormously from place to place — and became extreme at certain points, such as where the bottoms of the towers meet the base and where the tower tops bend over.
