“on a 210’ long trailer?”

No trailer, axles attached to the beams every XX feet as determined by the manufacturer for safety and to reduce stress on product.

No way these hogs will travel on most non-interstate highways.

You’re looking at 215-220 total feet of vehicle and beam. Imagine that trying to maneuver the highway.
Traffic will be seriously backed up as those loads won’t travel at more than 45-50 mph.
Transport will make every newscast on it’s route.
