Since about 1983 all 48 contiguous states have restricted a "Tandem Axle truck" to 12,000# max on the steer axle and 34,000# max. on the tandems for 46,000# total cap.
Not to doubt you but Colorado DOT told me that I could be 52,000 in my tandem dump truck. 12,000 on the steer and 20,000 on the drives.
