Under the Classification Mixi.ng Rule, GSA I may view different articl.As in a mixed shipment as two separate shipments and combine a tender and tariff in the compu- tation of lowcr charges, provided ithe inteqrity of each is preserved. 2. In applying a tepder to one article of a mixed shipment, GZA did not violate the tender's lineal foot rule by applying the construcative weight of 750 pounda only to the length of the one article and did not impi .perly ignore the truck- load mii.-un weight of 30,000 pounds provided by the tender's capacity load rule wherela shipment uses 32 feet of a trailer's loading space, because by its terms the lineal foot rule provides for appliation to each incremental foot of space used, and there are no express provisions in the capacity load rule preventing a shipper fron viewing the f articles an two separate shipments. - 3.
