load capacity


Explanation:
In general engineering terms, "load capacity' will often be found whether it be a vessel, truck, or any other transport vehicle. "Daya angkut" means the maximum amount (capacity) of load that a vehicle is allowed to carry, according to its specifications.

Example sentence(s):
  • Truk tidak boleh mengangkut melebihi daya angkutnya.
  • Trucks may not carry more than their respective load capacities.
