It is not known as we have not exactly tested this. The heaviest known object to have been lifted by a tornado was a 90 ton oil tank. The tornado that did this almost certainly reach F5 intensity.

An F5 tornado, the most severe category, can have winds exceeding 200 mph and is capable of lifting heavy objects such as cars, train cars, and even well-built structures several hundred feet into the air. The exact weight limit will vary based on the specific conditions of the tornado and the object being lifted.

F5 tornadoes have the capability to tear roads off the ground due to their extreme wind speeds and powerful winds that can lift and displace heavy objects. The severity of damage caused by a tornado depends on various factors such as the strength of the tornado, the construction of the road, and other environmental conditions.

How do F5 tornadoes form from a F1 tornado?

An F5 tornado does not form directly from an F1 tornado. Tornado intensity is determined by the Enhanced Fujita Scale based on wind speeds and damage. It is possible for a tornado to rapidly intensify due to various atmospheric conditions, leading to an increase in intensity from an F1 to an F5 tornado.

F4 and F5 are the two strongest categories of tornado on the Fujita scale. A damage based scale which rates tornadoes from F0 to F5. An F4 tornado will reduce most houses to piles of rubble. An F5 tornado will completely annihilate almost any house and wipe it clean off its foundation. Winds in an F5 can exceed 300 mph.
