EZ Series Assembly Overview

The modular sections of the SURVIVOR EZ
truck scales are shipped pre-assembled and
ready to be placed into position with a crane
capable of handling 8,000 lbs. Once in final
position on temporary setting blocks, the
individual modules are bolted together. Load
cells and mounts are set to the level of the deck,
at which time the setting blocks can be re-
moved. Fibermesh concrete with polypropylene
fibers (or standard 4000 psi concrete and 6" x 6"
x 10 gauge steel mesh) is then poured and cured
for the final deck surface. The general assembly
order is summarized below. Detailed directions
are found in the EZ Truck Scales Assembly Instructions available from Rice Lake Weighing Systems.
1. With a crane, set modules into position on setting blocks
2. Level and bolt modules together
3. Set mounts and load cells to weighbridge; remove setting blocks
4. Install mount anchor bolts and grout beneath mount plates
5. Pour and finish concrete deck
6. Run cabling through conduit and make electrical connections
7. Connect indicator and peripheral devices
Scheduling and Labor Guidelines for EZ Series Installation
When scheduling installation, plan for a half-day crane rental. A two-man crew aided by a crane can place
the modules, bolt them together, and install mounts and load cells in one day.
A crew of three can normally pour and finish the deck surface in the morning of the second day. A crew of
two can normally run all electrical wiring in conduit and make electrical connections in the afternoon of
the second day.
