ABSTRACT:
A trailer for receiving and hauling bulk material. The trailer includes an elongated bed with an external skeletal frame. Along with the skeletal frame, two truss members are provided on opposite longitudinal sides of the bed. Each truss includes downwardly converging truss members that are affixed at opposite upper ends to the horizontal top rail of the skeletal frame. The truss members converge downwardly to ends that meet at points below the bottom wall of the bed. These ends are affixed to one another and are situated at the approximate longitudinal center of the trailer. Upright web members extend between the top rails and truss members at longitudinally spaced locations along the trailer. A transverse tie member is also provided extending between the joined lower ends of the truss members across the width of the trailer below the bottom wall of the bed.
