Superload (Noun)
Meaning
A variable load on a structure (e.g. a bridge) such as moving traffic.
Classification
Nouns denoting man-made objects.
Examples
- The engineers considered the weight and speed of a passing train to be a superload that needed to be factored into their design of the bridge's stress analysis.
- Superloads, such as marching crowds and high-wind forces, are some of the heaviest types of live loads a bridge has to bear.
- Regular assessments and calculations need to be conducted on an existing bridge structure when predicting what sort of potential damage frequent or varied superloads like roaming cars, taxis and multi-unit moving van haulers traveling would add on these heavily taxed passages every working morning to figure best proactive upkping routine at particular pinch time- windows .
