Flatbed & Open Deck 3D Planner

Model open-deck freight on common equipment, review legal-dimension triggers, estimate tiedown planning requirements, and build the quote notes needed before a carrier or permit office signs off.

Load profile

Start with the equipment and handling rules.

Piece mix

Add each piece type staged for this load.

Use one row per machinery type, crate size, bundle size, container, stone, or other article group. Weight is entered per piece.

Planning assumptions: 102" legal width reference, a common 13'6" total loaded-height trigger, and an 80,000 lb gross-weight reference before route, axle, bridge, and state permit review. State rules, equipment specs, and route limits can change the final answer.

FMCSA securement baselineImmobilize cargo, protect tiedowns from abrasion, and plan aggregate WLL at no less than half the cargo weight. General tiedown countUse the length and weight rules as a baseline, then apply commodity-specific rules when they govern. Legal size awarenessUse 102" width and common loaded-height limits as planning triggers, then verify the state and route.

This guide is planning support only. Final loading, securement, permits, escorts, route surveys, axle spacing, and bridge compliance must be verified for the actual equipment, commodity, carrier, origin, destination, and route.
