Dump Trailers, Frame Vs. Frameless

made a big mistake by pulling out with the body all the way up......i always put it up and bring it down at least half way then pull up and if its not fully mt put it up again

 

Here in europe we had rear end
2side and 3side tippers



here in my contury during highway construction bechtel bring their trucks but they had many problems and they suspend them ..... And lot of dump frameless trailer were roll-owered i have seen one at the bodywork shop when the best workshop tryed to fix it (it was before tryed to fix by less exprienced workers in other shop) and trailer finished in scrap just like mostof them so i am for frame trailer

 

If you need 50 yd capacity.........then you're going to be using a frameless trailer. A frame type trailer in this size will weigh to much for you to be able to scale a decent amount on the trailer to make a profit. Most brokers work with the thought and price the loads for a 23-24 ton payloads. If you buy a frame type 50 cubic yard tralier, you'll be lucky if you'll net 22.5 tons.

The second video...........looks like the guy was loaded driver side heavy. I also think he didn't dump the air off the suspension. As he pulls foward and it starts to lean harder to the drivers side the trailer raises up quickly as the load starts to clear off the rear of the trailer. If he had air in the suspension and it leans..........it aggravates the situation that much more, because the air leaves the bag with the most weight and tranfers to the bag with the least weight.........this makes it lean harder to the heavy side and flips the trailer

 

Keep tabs on that tail gate.

guys can anyone can give an example link picture or something i would like to know how heavy are US tipper semitrailer both for construction and bigger traukers for grain wheat korn soy.... And write what kind of material is and volume weight usage and is that frame o without.....i will be tomorow at home so i will out some europen example from PC (i am now at mobile phone)

 

I sow dozens of this kind of accidents. There are many tippers in Ukraine and Russia. Especially dangerouse is wet coal. when it is frozen all this stuff is like a stone, may easily flip bed, twist trailer and trucktor.

That's why operators prefere smaller rigit dump trucks with heated with exaust bed.

 

i have pulled both and prefer frameless.always dump air in trl,stay level and if it is sticky material check the box yourself. don't take someone elses word for it. a ton or two hanging up in the nose with no weight in back as you pull up will take it over as well. didn't happen to me but learned a lesson watching anothers misery. depending on material keep in mind load freezing. also think about a liner,i don't have one but haul mostly ag/feed

 

Makes me want to go out and buy a dump trailer NOT

 

I love the challenges they present....and a lot of work in these rigs is always on new sites, or for new construction, which means you are constatnly going to new and different situations.

 

not too smart when you let the swing gate hit the ground and push the trailer over.
