Section 19-101-6 - Inventory rating
Current through February, 2024
(a) The inventory rating is that load level which can safely utilize an existing structure for an indefinite period.
(b) If the inventory rating of the lowest capacity structure is exceeded by the vehicle, or combination of vehicles, conveying a load which consists of gravel, cement, lumber, petroleum products, pipe or any other product, material or equipment which is physically capable of being reduced in weight to meet the inventory rating of the structure, without damage to the load, the load shall be so reduced before a permit shall be issued.
(c) A permit for the movement of a vehicle and load configuration which does not exceed the inventory rating of the lowest capacity structure shall be issued for continuous operation and shall be valid for one year from date of issuance. If reduced to the 10-ton load limit, no permit is required.
(d) If the inventory rating of the lowest capacity structure is exceeded by the vehicle or combination of vehicles and load, all or part of which can reasonably be dismantled, disassembled or in any manner reduced, such action shall be taken to the maximum extent possible before a permit shall be issued.
(e) Alternatively, if the inventory rating can be met by use of other transporting equipment, a permit shall be granted on such basis.
(f) A permit for the movement of a vehicle and load configuration which exceeds the inventory rating of the lowest capacity structure shall be issued for a single trip (one-way or round trip) and shall be valid only for the specific date, time and route designated in the permit.
