Weighing the vehicle

Each axle on the vehicle must be weighed in order to calibrate the system. This can be done using weigh

pads or a weigh bridge.

Vehicle weighing should be performed on a flat, level surface, in calm weather conditions. If

possible, weigh the vehicle indoors.

Weigh pads

1. Use one pair of weigh pads per axle.

If possible, weigh all axle at

the same time. If not, use

levelling mats to maintain

the overall level of any

axles which are not being

weighed.

2. Add together the weight

measurements for both sides

of the axle to calculate the

current weight of the axle.

Weigh bridge

The weigh bridge must have a level

approach.

1. Drive the vehicle on to the weighbridge

2. Take the weight measurement

3. Drive the front axle off the weigh bridge

4. Take the weight measurement
