9 mm Wide Belts

Hi everyone, my team is working on our final drive train and we were wondering how strong the 9mm belts are compared to the 15 mm belts? How would we even go about calculating if we need the thicker belts or is it just knowlege that you should use the wider 15mm belts for drive train applications. I didn't see any calculation tools on the vex site and just wanted to try and figure it out. Thanks you guys!
