I’m no expert but wouldn’t the positioning of that load contributed to the trailers demise?,wouldn’t of it been better over the back axles?
Putting heavy loads on the rear of any trailer makes a real jack knife risk, obviously the cargo is extremely heavy and so needed to be equally distributed between the drive and rear axles. Looking at the small gap in the floor of the trailer that is visible just behind the load I would say it is a coil carrier trailer, the coils of steel drop into the recess of the floor and are held in place, the fact that the flooring is missing from that recess suggest a weakness may have occurred.
