Worked out from UPS Rate and Service Guide, dimensional weight calculation and 10 other sources.

How this is worked out

4 steps
  1. This mode bills the scale weight, so no dimensional weight is calculated: 3500 lb.
  2. 1000 miles x 0 per mile = 0.
  3. Length plus girth = 190 + 2 x (72 + 57) = 448.
  4. Density 7.76 lb per cubic foot puts this in NMFC class 125.
