FULL RCC WEIGHBRIDGE PIT TYPE
With ever-rising steel prices, it makes great economic sense to install concrete platform weighbridges, A part form low costs, it offers high strength and is virtually maintenance free – requiring no painting every year. Its life is 100 years as compared to that of 15 years of a typing steel platform. Due to the advantages of concrete plat form, the Developed World has been using them for over 30 years.in Europe 95% of electronic weigh bridges are made with concrete plat from.
As the plat from gets longer, cost saving increases. Modern day transportation is moving towards using longer trucks and trailers .MNC truck manufactures, such as Volvo, who have started manufacturing in India, are introducing longer models which are capable of carrying heavier payloads. The concrete platform weigh bridges can heavier loads.
That is why all modern bridges that one sees on the city roads are either concrete or composite.
A heavily loaded truck entering the weigh bridge gives heavy jerks on braking Vibration thus caused. Reduces the life and accuracy of the load cell and thus needs to be reduced to minimum ,vibration is much more in the case of steel as compared to concrete as it absorbs vibration.
