Concrete, Rebar, and Mesh Requirements
Materials estimates for concrete foundations (slab or pier), approaches, standard 34' long ramps, and
decks can be drawn from the following charts. The charts include the most popular truck scale models
from 11' x 60' up to 14' x 93'. Note that either a reinforced slab foundation, or a pier foundation may be
used with any of the scale models.
The following charts assume that the pier foundations do not include a concrete cleanout pad around the
piers beneath the weighbridge. If adding a concrete cleanout pad, increase concrete quantity accordingly.
The charts assume standard 10' approaches and 34' long concrete ramps to final grade.
EZ scale decks are poured using either Polyfill fibermesh concrete or standard 4,000 psi concrete and
6" x 6" x 10 gauge steel reinforcing mesh.
SR scale decks require corrugated sheeting (to support concrete) and rebar to be obtained locally and
added on site. Rebar sizes and exact quantities are listed on the assembly drawings for each scale. Corru-
gated sheeting quantities can be estimated by adding 20% to the square footage of the scale deck area.
These charts are for preliminary estimating purposes only. For exact material quantities and sizes, refer to
the drawing # referenced with each scale model in the charts.
