Weighbridge
A weighbridge, also known as a truck scale, is a large device used to measure the weight of vehicles, typically trucks, to determine the load they carry. It consists of a sturdy platform with sensors that detect weight as the vehicle drives onto it. This measurement helps ensure compliance with weight regulations, prevent road damage, and facilitate accurate billing for transportation of goods. Weighbridges are commonly found at shipping yards, factories, and transportation hubs for efficient and precise weight assessment of loaded vehicles.
