This investigation explores the dependability and endurance of trailer frames. It proposes a methodology for evaluating these traits, using calculations based on the probability of non-failure operation (PNFO) and the average time between failures (MTBF) of the frame components. Additionally, a mathematical model has been suggested for the appraisal of trailer frame durability, which utilises the Weibull distribution and the power equation of the fatigue curve. The methodology is exemplified through the application on a specific trailer frame. The findings indicate the feasibility of this method for assessing the dependability and longevity of trailer frames.
