Calculate ADR 1.1.3.6 "small load" exemption points for a dangerous-goods load. Each substance's transport category (0-4) sets a points multiplier (category 1 x50, 2 x3, 3 x1, 4 x0; the nine ADR 1.1.3.6.3 note-a entries UN 0081/0082/0084/0241/0331/0332/0482/1005/1017 are x20 with a 50 kg per-transport-unit cap); points = quantity x multiplier, and a load totalling 1,000 points or less qualifies for reduced ADR requirements. Transport category 0 substances can NEVER use this exemption — has_category_zero flags them. Provide un_number + quantity for a single substance, or items[] for a mixed load (items takes precedence if both are given). Quantities are in kg or litres per the substance's ADR unit. Multi-variant UNs: a UN number with more than one ADR Table A row (packing group / concentration variant — e.g. UN 1789 PG II vs PG III have different transport categories) needs packing_group (I|II|III) or variant_index (from adr_lookup) to pin one row. Without a disambiguator the tool returns blocking_errors[AMBIGUOUS_UN_VARIANT] + human_review_required + candidates[] (each candidate's variant_index, packing_group, proper_shipping_name, transport_category, multiplier) and NO verdict, rather than silently guessing a row. Single-row UNs are unchanged. Scope verdicts: Table A rows listed "NOT SUBJECT TO ADR" or "CARRIAGE PROHIBITED" never enter the points math. An all-not-subject load (e.g. UN 1845 dry ice) returns not_subject_to_adr true with a dedicated message ("Not subject to ADR (road). Section 5.5.3 applies: ...") and, for dry ice, conditions[] quoting the ADR 2025 section 5.5.3 requirements verbatim (ventilation, package marking, warning mark, documentation, training). A load containing a CARRIAGE PROHIBITED entry returns exempt false with carriage_prohibited true. In a mixed load, not-subject items are excluded from the points and the exclusion is stated in warnings. Behavior: deterministic points arithmetic over ADR 2025 reference data; a UN that cannot be found returns blocking_errors (NOT_FOUND); exempt is the overall verdict. Rate-limited (anonymous use: 25 requests/day per IP): a 429 error body carries retry_after_seconds and a Retry-After header — back off and retry, or call get_subscribe_link for higher limits. Returns: items[] (each with packing_group, variant_index, transport_category, multiplier, points, and scope flags where applicable), total_points, threshold (1000), exempt, has_category_zero, has_quantity_exceedance, warnings, message and — on scope verdicts — not_subject_to_adr/conditions_ref/conditions[]/carriage_prohibited under result — or, when a UN is ambiguous, human_review_required + candidates[] with blocking_errors, plus confidence, _source and citation (the FreightUtils v1 response envelope). Limitations: a deterministic calculation over reference data, not legal advice — even exempt loads keep core duties (packaging, marking, documentation), and mixed-packing rules still apply; verify against the current UNECE ADR text.
