27768-33 Abstract There is described a scale assembly for use in weighing a load. The scale assembly includes load sensors for providing an output indicative of the magnitude of a load and a platform for receiving a load to be weighed and supported at locations longitudinally spaced along the platform by the load sensors. The platform comprises an upper portion which includes a body of concrete, a lower portion disposed below the upper portion and formed of metal, the lower portion includes a plurality of spaced apart longitudinally extending metal beams. Connectors are provided for preventing relative movement between the body of concrete and the lower portion of the platform upon the application of a load to the platform. The body of concrete is stressed only in compression and the longitudinally extending beams are stressed in tension when the platform receives a load to be weighed. The platform has only one neutral plane which separates the portion of the platform stressed in compression from the portion of the platform stressed in tension. The neutral plane is disposed in the lower portion of the platform below the body of concrete.
