TAKE CARE ; you may know the total weight of the load you want to support but you cannot calculate the exact weight distribution between support points.

For this reason always allow a 40% margin for error.
For example: a load weighing 14tonne could have a single point load of more than 7tonne and two 7tonne supports would not be adequate.
