About this calculator
ODOL (Over Dimension Over Load) is the Indonesian term for trucks that exceed the legal dimensions or carry more than their permitted weight. An overloaded truck is harder to control, its brakes work harder and it wears out roads and bridges faster. For shippers, forwarders and hauliers, ODOL also means the risk of a vehicle being stopped on the road or at a weighbridge, delays, and insurance claims being disputed.
This tool runs two pre-checks. Overload: the gross weight (tare plus cargo, or a weighbridge reading) is compared with the JBB (Jumlah Berat yang Diperbolehkan, the permitted gross weight) recorded in the KIR inspection book or card. Over dimension: overall width must not exceed 2,500 mm, height must not exceed 4,200 mm nor 1.7 × the vehicle width, and length is limited according to the vehicle configuration. These dimension limits follow Government Regulation (PP) 55/2012 on Vehicles and Transport Ministry Regulation PM 60/2019.
The result is a planning pre-check, not an official ruling. The default length limits in the tool (12,000 mm for a rigid truck, 18,000 mm for a combination with a trailer) should be matched to the actual configuration. Always use the JBB and dimensions from the documents of the vehicle you use, and refer to the regulations in force and the competent authorities for enforcement rules.
Worked example
A CDD box truck with a JBB of 8,250 kg and a tare of 3,250 kg is loaded with 7,000 kg of cargo. Overall dimensions are 6,600 × 2,100 × 3,000 mm.
- Gross weight: 3,250 + 7,000 = 10,250 kg
- Overload: 10,250 − 8,250 = 2,000 kg, or 2,000 ÷ 8,250 = 24.2% above the JBB
- Maximum height: min(4,200; 1.7 × 2,100 = 3,570) = 3,570 mm ≥ 3,000 mm, dimensions are fine
The truck fails on overload: cut the cargo to 5,000 kg or split it over two vehicles.
How to use it
Enter the JBB from the KIR
Type the permitted gross weight recorded in the vehicle KIR inspection book or card, not an estimate.
Enter the gross weight
Use a weighbridge reading, or add the vehicle tare to the cargo weight.
Enter the overall dimensions
Type the vehicle length, width and height including any protruding load, and pick the length limit for its configuration.
Read the result
The tool shows any overload in kg and percent, the maximum permitted height and which dimensions exceed the limits.
