Federal Bridge Formula arithmetic

This tool runs the Federal Bridge Formula using the axle count and spacing you enter. Route, jurisdiction, axle configuration, permits, exemptions and equipment ratings can impose additional requirements, so treat the result as formula arithmetic rather than a legal determination.
