It is recommended that projects developing their equipment requirements contact Bechtel
Equipment Operations for assistance and to obtain the project equipment planning schedule. The

medium duty dump body which allows a
greater legal payload on tandem axle and
tri-axle trucks.

The HEIL-HD standard body includes; 3/16

hi-tensile floor, tailgate and dog-house, and
vertically braced, multi-paneled tailgate.
Optional wind deflector cab shield, roll tarp,
and tarp rail are shown.
Federal regulations prohibit the combined
weights of the truck chassis, hoist, and
platform/body, and payload to exceed the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) of the total
vehicle.
The company reserves the right under its
product improvement policy to change
construction or design details and furnish
equipment when so altered without reference
