The trailer must exhibit lightweight and corrosion-resistant aluminum construction with riveted connections for enhanced durability and flexibility. Notable specifications include a GVWR of 20,000 pounds, a fully boxed steel frame, and various supportive features such as a spring-loaded rear door assembly and a flat aluminum nose floor.
