weight limits
Heaviness caps imposed
Weight limits are restrictions on how heavy something can be.
They govern what vehicles can carry, what bridges can support, what luggage airlines accept, and what elevators can hold safely.
Exceeding weight limits risks structural failure, fines, or refused service: The truck was turned back at the weigh station for exceeding weight limits.
