The invention relates to a supporting element as a component of a motor vehicle trailer coupling or other trailer or a load carrier provided for coupling to a motor vehicle trailer coupling, wherein the supporting element (60-63) has at least one sensor (40) for sensing a deformation of the supporting element (60-63) by a load acting on the supporting element (60-63), wherein at least one recess (21, 121) for the at least one sensor (40) is provided on the supporting element (60-63), in the region of a supporting section (31; 331; 731), which deforms during the loading by the load, of the supporting element (60-63), wherein the at least one sensor (40) is provided for measuring a distance from reference areas (25, 26) of the at least one recess (21, 121). There is provision that the supporting element (60-63) is configured as a profiled body (665, 765) with at least two supporting walls (660, 761) which are angled or connected to one another via an arcuate section (769) and which enclose an intermediate space or cavity (664, 764), wherein at least one of the reference areas (25, 26) is provided on a passage opening in the profiled body (665, 765) or on an indicator element (736, 737) which protrudes in front of the profiled body (665, 765), and the reference areas (25, 26) move relative to one another, in particular towards one another or away from one another, during the deformation of the supporting element (60-63).
