Formula to determine load?

[thio]

Hi!

I have tried around a bit to find the formula used for determining loads (heavy load etc.), but wasn't all that successfull.

So, anyone knows it?^^

I am trying to make a half-automated charactersheet for maptool, and would like to calculate the values, since other values dependent on abilityscores are also calculated and recalculated if the scores change.

The following is very close (less than 1.5% off the given chart). "*" means multiplication, "^" means exponentiation, so 2^3 = 8. STR means strength score, not strength modifier.

Maximum Heavy Load:
- If STR<=10, use STR*10.
- If STR>=10, use 25*(2^(STR/5)).
- Use appropriate size/shape modifiers.
Maximum Medium Load: 2/3 of Heavy Load
Maximum Light Load: 1/3 of Heavy Load
Maximum Lift: 2 * Heavy Load
Maximum Drag: 5 * Heavy Load
