According to the rules Road Traffic Russian Federation (hereinafter SDA) permissible width vehicle 2 meters 60 centimeters for refrigerators and isothermal vans and 2 meters 55 centimeters for other vehicles. The maximum vehicle height is 4 meters. The maximum length of a road train including one trailer cannot exceed 20 meters, while the length of the tractor and the length of the trailer cannot exceed 12 meters.

The permissible mass of a two-axle vehicle (hereinafter referred to as a vehicle) cannot exceed 18 tons, 25 tons for a 3-axle vehicle and 32 tons for a 4-axle vehicle. The mass of a 3-axle road train must not exceed 28 tons, a 4-axle road train 36 tons and a 5-axle road train 40 tons.

Limiting axial load at a distance of more than 2 meters between the nearest axles should not exceed 10 tons per axle, at a distance from 1.65 to 2 meters inclusively 9 tons, at a distance from 1.35 to 1.65 m inclusive, the maximum axle load should not exceed 8 tons, with a distance from 100 to 135 cm, the maximum axle load should not exceed 7 tons and with a distance between the nearest axles, the maximum axle load on 1 axle should not exceed 6 tons.

All vehicles that do not fit into the specified restrictions are oversized and for their movement on public roads you need to obtain special permits. For driving a vehicle exceeding these dimensions, a fine is imposed on the driver or the VU is withdrawn in accordance with the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

The main problem is the lack of understanding by drivers of these norms. So let's break it down into questions and answers.

B: machine width 2.55 + mirrors. Is it oversized?
A: no, it's a size.

Q: let's say a load overhang of 0.4 m in each side and 2 meters behind?
A: yes, but at the same time, the width of the vehicle with the load cannot be more than 2.55 m, and the length of the road train is no more than 20 meters.

Q: what does the phrase "pierced along the axes" mean.
A: For example, a 3-axle truck drives onto the scale. Total weight less than 25 tons, distance between rear axles 135 cm, but the load on the rear bogie is 20 tons, i.e. not 8 tons per axle, but 10. It is little better than if the truck weighed more than 25 tons.

Q: I was driving tires (tires are taken as an example), on the way they fell apart, opened the awning and my license was taken away from me. IDPS is right?
A: Yes, IDPS is right as the vehicle's dimensions are exceeded, but there is no permit. The driver is responsible for oversizing.

Q: the walls of the refrigerator, which according to the documents has a width of 2.6 m, are "inflated" even without load, will the license be taken away?
A: yes, they will.

Q: the vehicle height on raised cushions (meaning axle cushions, an analogue of springs) in the transport position is 402 cm, will the license be taken away?
A: yes, the license will be taken away. If in the transport position the vehicle exceeds the size, then these are your problems, they do not bother IDPS. Try to bleed air at stops or look for legal justification that the measurement of your vehicle was not made in accordance with GOST.

Q: according to the documents, the cargo is 20 tons, it fits into the size, it turned out on the scales that there are 25 tons, who is to blame.
A: the shipper is to blame, he will pay for all the "performance", but often it is not always possible to immediately prove this, therefore, legal delays are possible.

As you can see, the working conditions are quite tough and the driver almost always has a good chance of being left without documents, but you should not be afraid of this and give money, since giving a bribe is a serious article, and your guilt has yet to be proven in court. According to the stories of those who carry oversized cargo, there are years when they drive 8-10 months a year not with a license, but with a temporary permit. The main thing is to know the laws, and not at the level of “heard somewhere”, but the literal formulations and, if possible, carry a collection of laws with you.

Cargo transportation by multi-ton vehicles is a popular way to deliver goods to their destination. KamAZ trucks have proven themselves in the field of cargo transportation due to their carrying capacity, endurance and wide specialization. The technical characteristics of KamAZ make it possible to deliver goods both on highways and on dirt roads.

The foundation freight transport - this is his body. Depending on the type of cargo transported, it provides a large selection of chassis and bodies. The most in demand among them are onboard and tilt units with a carrying capacity of 10 tons, auto and isothermal vans, refrigerators and ten-ton trucks with an increased volume.

The KamAZ cab has a classic cabover layout. In accordance with the requirements of European legislation for the length of road trains, this allows space for a longer semi-trailer. The cockpit width along the wings is 2210 mm. The width of KamAZ on wheels is 2500 mm. Mirror dimensions - 2950 mm. Height from ground to top point cabins without berths - 2820 mm.

Recall that the Agreement of the CIS countries sets the maximum width of the vehicle no more than 2550 mm, insulated bodies of the vehicle - no more than 2600 mm.

Tilt units with a lifting capacity of 10 tons

Tilt bodies belong to the category of closed bodies used for the delivery of goods that are sensitive to external factors. In the manufacture of such a body, the machine platform is equipped with a frame on which a waterproof tarpaulin or PVC tarpaulin awning is stretched. Both the awning itself and the frame are easily dismantled, which allows the truck to be loaded in various ways.

Depending on the design and the wishes of the owner, awnings can be equipped with a canopy, a gate or a curtain mechanism.

The characteristics of the tilt KamAZ make it possible to transport almost any bulky cargo without mechanical damage. The carrying capacity of these vehicles is estimated at 10-15 tons. The overall dimensions of the vehicle are as follows: width 2400-2500 mm, height 1800-3000 mm, length 5000-8000 mm.

See " Russian truck tractor KamAZ-6460 and its modifications

At the same time, an empty ten-ton KamAZ weighs from 10.2 tons to 19.3 tons. This is the curb weight (ie, without cargo) of the now-produced on-board KamAZ-43118, 4355 of the Mustang family and the KamAZ-45142 agricultural dump trucks, 45143.

Onboard ten-ton machines

The side body is classified as open. It allows you to transport goods of complex geometric shapes (taking into account the requirements of traffic rules), bulk, modular, bulk, undemanding to external conditions. The sides prevent the cargo from shifting and falling out.

The side platforms have 3 low folding sides, suitable for installing an awning: rear and 2 side. In this case, the side boards are with one and two folding sections. Such platforms are designed for the transportation of bulk cargo, construction and road machinery, equipment, etc.

The vehicle frame also allows the installation of a tipper platform with a lifting mechanism. Dump trucks are used for transportation of bulk cargo - building materials, construction waste, etc. In turn, dump platforms are of two types: bucket and rectangular.

The dimensions of the body depend on the characteristics of the chassis on which it is installed. At the side platforms, the height of the standard side is 642 mm, of the extension side - 1265 mm.

The internal dimensions of common side platforms are as follows: width - 2300 mm, length - from 3630 to 5960 mm, height - from 642 to 1775 mm. Internal dimensions of bucket dump platforms: 3630 × 2300 × 685 mm. The dump platform has a dead weight of 1800 to 2000 kg.

The platform volume varies from 6.6 to 20 m³. The height of the dump truck with the body raised is 5880 mm.

Box vans

Manufactured goods vans provide transportation of goods that do not require thermal insulation of the body. These are industrial goods and consumer goods.

Vans on the KamAZ chassis have a rigid, often non-separable body that protects the goods from external influences. They are mounted on KamAZ-4308, 53215, 65117 chassis. They are made of painted galvanized steel or sandwich panels with aluminum corners edging.

See " Characteristics of military and civilian modifications of the KamAZ-53501 truck

Loading is done through the rear or side gates. To facilitate loading and unloading, the vans can be equipped with a tail lift.

The van is often used as the basis of insulated bodies and refrigerators.

Reinforced vans based on KamAZ are also produced, which work as mobile workshops or laboratories. They are indispensable for providing technical assistance in the field, for carrying out rescue operations, and are also widely used for the needs of the army.

The bulk of KamAZ bodies, trailers and vans are produced in Tatarstan, at the enterprises of NefAZ, KamAZ and private factories. There are manufacturers in other regions as well. But all manufactured products must meet the specifications of KamAZ.

Depending on the manufacturer, the parameters of cars, for example, manufactured goods vans, differ slightly. At the same time, the dimensions of KamAZ remain within the framework of the current legislation. So, for the KamAZ-53212 car there is a modification with external dimensions of 2500 × 6244 × 2518 mm, and the volume of the van is 35.6 m³.

Thermal models

Thermal vans are designed to transport chilled or pre-frozen food or other goods that require a special temperature for transportation.

They are often mounted on the KamAZ-4308, 53215, 65117 chassis. They are made of sandwich panels 50-100 mm thick. They have high thermal insulation and consist of galvanized painted steel and polyurethane foam as insulation. This allows maintaining a constant climatic environment in the van for a long time.

Isothermal vans are equipped with natural ventilation through special hatches in the front side and rear doors.

The thermos van on the base KamAZ-43253 chassis has a body volume of 31.2 m³. The length of the van is 5200 mm, the height is 2400 mm, and the width of the KamAZ body is constant 2500 mm.

The trailed road train (made up of a van with a trailer) also has an increased capacity.

Super-volumetric semitrailers are called Jumbo (pronunciation variants Yumbo, Yumba) and have the maximum possible body volume - up to 122 m³.

Ten-ton trucks with a similar body have a volume of 40-60 m³, length - from 6500 mm to 8000 mm, width - from 2430 mm to 2450 mm, height - from 2500 mm to 3000 mm.

This is achieved thanks to a broken frame with a lowered floor level of the semi-trailer. In view of this feature, the design is designed for high-quality flat roads.

When transporting cargo in a box of this type, it is necessary to correctly distribute packages taking into account the dimensions and weight of each, since the increased volume allows you to lay out the cargo up to 3 m in height. And its lower layers can deteriorate under the influence of the weight of the upper ones.

Refrigerated trucks

The refrigerator is equipped with a refrigeration unit, which allows you to maintain the desired temperature throughout the entire delivery route. It is necessary for the transport of food and goods that are sensitive to temperature extremes.

The insulated walls of the van made of sandwich panels together with the refrigeration unit do not allow a drop internal temperature by more than 1 ° C throughout the body. The higher the ambient temperature and the lower the temperature of the transported products, the more effective the thermal insulation must be.

The refrigerator based on KamAZ-65117 has an internal volume of the platform of 49 m³. The dimensions of the van are 7900 × 2540 × 2500 mm. The larger the internal volume of a refrigerated vehicle, the more powerful the refrigeration unit must be.

Car width, like others dimensions, - this is an important indicator on which the passability of the machine in specific places depends. A similar classification is usually used by equipment manufacturers, which allows you to determine the position of the model on the market. However, there are international requirements that allow a vehicle to be assigned to a specific group. The final indicators of this value have no clear boundaries and in different countries vary.

What are the dimensions of a car?

Each light or commercial motor vehicle has its own Vehicle width, as well as height and length, are spelled out in any operating instructions for the unit. Also, similar indicators can be found in thematic tables or sections.

Dimension parameters make it possible to evaluate options for maneuvers in a given situation. The length of the car is determined between the maximum protruding elements in front and behind the vehicle. The width of the cars is calculated at the edges of the protruding mirrors, and the height is fixed at the highest point of the roof. All this allows you to calculate the capacity of a car in a garage or other places that have certain restrictions.

Features:

The streamlining of the vehicle body is not only responsible for the aesthetics, but also gives a certain factor air resistance... A low value indicates good vehicle dynamics properties. The width of cars in this regard also plays an important role. The pressure on the vehicle becomes more noticeable above 55 km / h. The predominant number of modern sedans has a drag coefficient of no more than 30. Jeeps, crossovers and trucks, due to the angularity of their shapes, have this parameter in the region of 40-50 units. The best aerodynamic capabilities are found in sports cars, which have the most streamlined body and additional systems that reduce air resistance.

Interior width refers to the distance measured from the right to left door panel. The rear parameters may differ from the front parameters due to the original design and construction solutions. Users have a special attitude towards legroom. Due to their peculiarities, some cars have a minimum of this space, which is not always convenient for tall people. In turn, spacious interiors logically increase the overall dimensions of the vehicle and its cost on materials.

Passenger car width: nuances

The European machine qualification is based on several positions. Among them:

• Width.
• Length.
• Height.
• Price.
• A set of options.
• Optional equipment.

Determining the width of the car is much easier on domestic models VAZ, GAZ, UAZ. They are produced according to certain standards, and each series corresponds to its own parameters. It's a little more complicated with foreign cars. This is due to the fact that they are being finalized and improved. And this often leads to an increase. It should be noted that the expansion of dimensions by 100-150 millimeters is considered a positive factor. Size classification is carried out using the Latin alphabet (from A to F). A special group of vehicles is marked with the letters S, J, M.

Domestic cars

IN russian car industry category "A" includes machines less than 3.6 meters long and no more than 1.6 meters wide. Such copies are comparable to the "Oka". Class "B" is designed for a length of 3.9 meters. The width of cars in this group should not exceed 1.7 m. This category includes "Tavria" and similar brands in size.

The middle class "golf" includes specimens, the length and width of which reaches 4.4 / 1.75 meters. This group includes modifications of the VAZ-2106 and 2107. Categories D, E, F reach parameters of 4.7 / 1.8 meters. The 41st "Moskvich", as well as "Lada-Granta" and "Kalina" fit into this classification.

Foreign cars

The length and width of a foreign-made vehicle is commensurate with domestic units.

1. Class A. These are vehicles designed to travel through tight city streets. Representatives - Daewoo-Mathis, Renault-Twino and other small displacement models.
2. Category B. These cars are among the most popular European models. Volume power unit does not exceed 1.6 liters. Popular models are Opel Astra, Nissan Mikra, Ford Fiesta, Skoda Fabia and similar modifications.
3. Class C includes more than roomy carssuch as Volkswagen Golf.
4. Class D are models with roomy interior and luggage compartment... Among them are Volkswagen Passat and Toyota Avensis.
5. Category E - executive class cars (Jaguar, BMW-5, Kaddilak).
6. Segment F - long cars in passenger class (Rolls-Royce, BMW-7, Hyundai-Ekus) and others.

Trucks

The width of a truck depends on its purpose and carrying capacity, but must comply with the accepted road rules... As a rule, the ability to transport these vehicles ranges from 1.5 to 30 tons. It all depends on the requirements of the owner and the characteristics of the cargo.

Specialized trucks can transport up to 40 tons. This type of transport includes container ships, timber trucks, refrigerators, tractors with trailers, as well as thermally protected vans and containers.

How to control dimensions?

The width of the cars, like the length, can be visually controlled by the driver while driving. For this is used windshield and mirrors. This solution allows you to choose correct radius and turning time, and also contributes to normal parking.

Before getting behind the wheel on his own, the owner must feel the size of the car, taking into account its behavior on the road. The best solution would be to study theory and combine it with practical skills.

Knowing the theory about vehicle dimensions will help with this. Driving practice will help reinforce the sense of distance from the vehicle, whatever category it belongs to. Every user who takes this business in good faith makes a contribution to ensuring road safety and reducing the number of road accidents.

The production of the legendary seven at the Volga Automobile Plant began in March 1982 and lasted for over 30 years. The machine still enjoys well-deserved popularity in our country and abroad. The dimensions of the car allow it to be classified as B class according to the international standard or the second group according to the national. VAZ 2107 is still assembled at Izhmash and at the Pishchemash plant in the Chechen Republic.

The seven was exported under the name Lada 1500, Riva or Nova. It is an improved luxury version of the 2105. A number of changes were made to the prototype design, in particular, the electrical circuit, attachments and the engine itself. The VAZ 2107 has a salon with an improved finish; seats with integrated head restraints are installed in the front row.

Geometric parameters of the car

The car has a monocoque three-volume sedan-type body in the classic version. The engine compartment is located in the front, the closed passenger compartment in the middle, and the trunk in the back. There are 4 doors for boarding the driver and passengers, the engine compartment is closed by a hood that rises forward. This scheme is most widespread in the automotive industry, as the most successful.

The table of dimensions of the VAZ 2107 car is given in the technical documentation, the main parameters:

A detailed diagram with an exact indication of the linear dimensions is indicated in the official publication of the vehicle operating instructions.

Weight characteristics of the machine

VAZ 2107 for its time was an excellent car that was successfully sold, including outside our country. Machine by technical specifications was not inferior to analogs at a lower price, the used constructive scheme is highly reliable. The curb weight of the vehicle is a little over a ton, which allows it to demonstrate a good power-to-weight ratio.

The maximum permissible load is 400 kg, in other words, the car can carry five adult passengers. With a smaller amount, it is possible to transport luggage in a special compartment. The rational scheme of mass distribution between the axles ensures good stability and controllability of the vehicle.

The small dimensions of the VAZ 2107 model, the optimal weight for such dimensions and powerful engine provide the car with good dynamics and maneuverability. The successful design and low price predetermined the commercial success of the car and, despite its considerable age, it still does not lose popularity.
