Next project is to add roof bars to the trailer so that I can then
some
bike carriers.


As a rough guide to the sort of strength you should be achieving,
picture (or try) the trailer tilted forwards at 40 degrees, then
sideways at about the same angle. If the load falls off, or over, or
buggers the trailer, it will do the same under heavy braking or
cornering.

Are the trailer tyres, wheels, bearings, suspension, and tow hitch rated
for this extra load? Are they all in top condition? It will be a
rarity among trailers if they are.
