Lawrence David – other models: the collective page of semi-trailers from the British manufacturer outside the named ranges, Semi-Trailer and Step-Frame, 12,000 kg unladen weight, 30,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the semi-trailers of Lawrence David the register could not assign to a named range. The English manufacturer, based in Peterborough, builds semi-trailers and bodies; the two types listed here, Tandem-Axle Semi-Trailer and Tandem-Axle Step-Frame, name the axle configuration and frame type in plain terms. As with many smaller semi-trailer programmes, the programme is drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 2 versions with an unladen weight of 12,000 kg, a gross weight of 30,000 kg, lengths from 13,630 to 13,830 mm and a width of 2,550 mm.
With matching unladen and gross weights on both versions and a length difference of only 200 mm, the two types differ mainly in frame construction: the step-frame lowers the load bed in a step, while the semi-trailer keeps a straight frame line. Both body types run as semi-trailers behind a tractor unit in commercial freight haulage.
On a used example at this size, the condition of axles, the brake system and brake discs or drums, rust on frame and side rails, the function of the kingpin and landing gear, and the state of the load bed and the tarpaulin or curtainsider mechanism, where fitted, all count. Parts from an established British semi-trailer maker are usually available through the dealer and repair network. It is also worth checking the load rating of axles and tyres relative to the actually loaded weight.

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.
