Can anyone advise if there is a specific figure for non load bearing markings at the edge of a taxiway?

TFS runway entry point B0 has load bearing markings (but it is recommended as an entry point for runway 08 in LVPs). There is no mention of any load restriction in the Jeps?

The CAA doc only says

"Where it is necessary to define the outer edges of a taxiway, e.g. where a paved
taxiway shoulder has a bearing strength less than that of the main taxiway or where
a taxiway lies adjacent to a paved area not intended for use as a taxiway, the outer
edges of the taxiway should be marked as illustrated in Figure 7.28. The mark should
be so positioned that the inner edge of the mark represents the outer edge of the taxiway."
