Tru Axl - Axle Load Calculator Live

Tru Axl is the ultimate loading dock cockpit and heavy vehicle axle load distribution calculator, engineered specifically for the Australian road freight industry. Eliminate costly roadside overload fines, prevent mandatory vehicle groundings, and protect your Chain of Responsibility (CoR) status before your truck ever leaves the loading dock. THE LOADING DOCK COCKPIT: BALANCE BEFORE YOU LOAD Stop guessing freight placement. Tru Axl translates complex static torque equilibrium math into a clear, visual loading bay blueprint for truck drivers, forklift operators, and depot supervisors: • Millimeter Clearance Boundaries: Visual green dashed caliper markers display the exact allowable pallet boundary footprint with zero overhang. • Real-World Clearances: Live readouts display physical loading gaps (e.g. Front: 1.5m clearance vs Flushed 0m). • 30cm Tactile Nudges: Step cargo forward or rearward bay-by-bay (0.05f increments) to dial in optimal axle weights. • Continuous CoG Slider: Dynamically reposition your Center of Gravity and watch steer, drive, and tri-axle weights shift in real time. AUSTRALIAN GML COMPLIANCE & AXLE PHYSICS Calibrated to the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) General Mass Limits (GML): • Steer Axle: Enforces statutory 6.50t limit (or 7.10t complying steer under ADR 80/01). • Drive Tandem: Enforces 16.50t statutory bogie limit on prime movers. • Single Drive Capping: Automatically caps 2-axle 4x2 rigids at 9.00t single drive. • Trailer Tri-Axles: Tracks statutory 20.00t group limits. • Multi-Body Coupling: Solves kingpin downforce transfer from Trailer B onto Lead Tri-Axles in 9-axle B-Double combinations. AUSTRALIAN CHEP PALLET ALLOCATION & DOUBLE-STACKING • Standard Australian CHEP / Loscam footprint (1,165mm x 1,165mm) calculations. • 45ft Semi-Trailer: Exact 11-bay floor plan (22 CHEP pallets floor capacity). • Solo Rigid: 7-bay floor plan (14 CHEP pallets floor capacity). • 2-Tier Double Stacking: Instant 2-high vertical stacking calculations up to 44 pallets with automated 4.30m statutory height checks. • Point-Load Alerts: Automatically warns loaders if freight density exceeds 2,500 kg/pallet so load-spreading hardwood dunnage is used. CHAIN OF RESPONSIBILITY (CoR) EVIDENTIARY DEFENSE Under Australian Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) Section 26C, every party in the supply chain shares a Primary Duty of Safety. Tru Axl gives you an audit-proof defense: • Tamper-Evident SHA-256 Manifests: Seal trip mass calculations into a cryptographic digital ledger that cannot be backdated or modified after departure. • Roadside Inspector Beam: Present a high-contrast QR code directly through the cab window for 5-second highway patrol inspection without handing over your phone. • Online Docket Verification: Verify any sealed docket on truaxl.com/verify. • Sworn Pre-Departure Checklist: Digital verification of load restraints (NTC Load Restraint Guide), vehicle height (<4.3m), and turntable couplings. AUTOMATED OCR ONBOARDING & OFFLINE SOVEREIGNTY • Optical Plate Recognition: Point your camera at compliance plates or state modification plates (VSB6 / QLD / NSW / VIC) to extract VINs and GVM limits. • 100% Offline Regional Sovereignty: Full physics, visualizer calculations, and local Room database work seamlessly in remote outback corridors without mobile reception. SUPPORTED COMBINATIONS: • 2-Axle Solo Rigids (4x2) • 3-Axle Solo Rigids (6x4) • 6-Axle Semi-Trailers (Prime Mover + 45ft Flatbed / Tautliner) • 9-Axle B-Doubles (Lead + Tag Trailers) • Dog & Pig Trailer configurations Operate with complete confidence.
