Belastungsmöglichkeit = Belatsbarkeit!? I suspect it means mechanical loading/strain capacity. So it could be mechanical loading capacity tolerance. But I am not an expert to decide if in English you can use these terms especially within this field.
Ingeborg Gowans (X) Apr 27, 2007:
sentence before and after would help; it's pretty hard to come up with something reasonable without context
Francis Lee (X) Apr 27, 2007:
Context/readership? Does your question relate to the meaning of the German or an appropriate English rendering?

(working) load limit

I believe I've heard this referred to as a 'load limit' or the 'working load limit.'
Example sentence:

The Working Load Limit is the maximum load which should ever be applied to the product.
