Evaluation In the example shown you receive six weighing results. Assume you had
made a note of the values listed here.
These values allow you to determine the total weight of the truck crane and
the axle loads for the individual axle lines.
For the total weight
• Add together the six results.
For the axle loads of individual axle lines
• You must determine the weight of the associated axle group and divide it
by the number of axle lines.
Example of 3rd axle line
– Determine the weight of the axle group
The axle group 2 was weighed with the scales W3 and W4.
• Add the weighing results.
– Determining the axle load on the 3rd axle line
Axle group 2 has 2 axle lines.
• Divide the weight of the axle group by the number of axles.
Passenger side: W1 = 10 t, W3 = 10 t, W5 = 12 t
Driver's side: W2 = 10 t, W4 = 10 t, W6 = 12 t
Passenger side: W1 + W3 + W5 = 10 t + 10 t + 12 t = 32 t
Driver's side: W2 + W4 + W6 = 10 t + 10 t + 12 t = 32 t
Total weight = 64 t
Passenger side: W3 = 10 t
Driver's side: W4 = 10 t
Weight of axle group 2 = 20 t
Axle load =
Weight of axle group 2
=
20 t
= 10 t
Number of axle lines 2
