Laurent En Fils Laurent – O4-class semi-trailer with 20,000 kg gross weight, 14,650 kg unladen weight, 13,050 mm length and eight wheels for heavy loads.
Where a trailer's unladen weight makes up a large share of its gross weight, the build usually hides a reinforced frame meant for dense, compact heavy loads such as machinery, steel components or construction equipment. Such designs trade payload for a low centre of gravity and high frame stability under concentrated load.

The Laurent semi-trailer carries a gross weight of 20,000 kg. Against an unladen weight of 14,650 kg, high for this weight class, that leaves a payload of 5,350 kg. Over a body length of 13,050 mm and a width of 2,550 mm, the load sits on eight wheels and a 7,060 mm wheelbase, pointing to four heavily rated axles.
At 20,000 kg gross weight the Laurent falls into EU trailer class O4, the heavy semi-trailers above 10 tonnes. Towing it requires driving licence category CE, a tractor unit with a matching fifth wheel, and the air brake system required for this class.
When buying a used semi-trailer built this heavy, the reinforced frame deserves close inspection for deformation from concentrated heavy loads, especially at the support points. The eight wheels and their brakes should show even wear, and the axle suspension deserves particular attention given the concentrated load peaks it is designed to carry. Visible paint wear at the load anchor points is often the first sign of trouble.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
