Guys, how is the maximum filling capacity of atmospheric-pressure tank trucks calculated?

I searched on Baidu, but found conflicting information and no standard guidelines; I would be extremely grateful if those who know more could offer some guidance! :)
What medium is yours? What physical properties? For example, in the case of liquid ammonia, with a filling factor of 0.85 and a density of 0.7, the weight filling factor is 0.52 T/m3.
I’m not talking about pressure vessels; I’m referring to ordinary tank trucks at normal pressure, used for loading liquids
For general chemical raw materials, you can assume 80% as a good estimate, unless otherwise specified for certain materials.
You can take a look at the new regulatory standards, which specify the filling factors for certain substances as well as the design pressure for tank trucks.
