Load arrangement, number of trips, and truck occupancy rate — to plan the transport of Techduto PEAD pipes and coils.
The Truckload Calculator finds the best way to fit Techduto pipes and coils into trucks and trailers, based on each product’s dimensions and the vehicle’s. Just enter the products and quantities — the tool returns:
Supported products: Techdreno, Techduto NBR (corrugated pipe), Techduto DW, geocomposites and geotextile rolls.
It’s not just dividing total volume by the truck bed. The optimizer tests 3 ways to position each piece — lying down, standing on its side, standing on its end — and mixes orientations in the same load to leave the least amount of empty space.
Each pipe or coil can go in lying down, standing on its side, or standing on its end. The optimizer tests the combinations — it doesn’t use a fixed orientation — and picks the one that leaves the least free space.
Straight Truck (2.4 × 1.9 × 7.0 m), Truck (2.4 × 2.4 × 8.5 m) and Semi-Trailer (2.6 × 2.6 × 13.6 m) have quite different capacities. The calculator tests the vehicle mix that closes the freight with fewer trips.
When coils lie down, the row on top doesn’t stack straight over the one below — it sinks into the gap between two neighboring coils, like stacked marbles. Each extra row rises only about 87% of the coil’s diameter, not the full diameter — that nesting saves around 13% of the height used, fitting more rows in the same truck bed.
Optimizes by volume/space: per-axle weight limits and the vehicle’s gross weight rating are not automatically validated by the calculator — confirm load capacity with the carrier before closing the freight.
Our engineers can validate the calculations and specify the ideal solution.
