Uncompromising SURVIVOR® Strength

Concrete deck truck scales provide reliable traction in wet or icy weather conditions and resist corrosion— extending the weighbridge’s lifespan. SURVIVOR OTR concrete deck truck scales have greater mass than steel deck scales, resulting in less friction and maintenance.

Reliable Concrete Deck Design

Concrete deck truck scales offer improved load distribution to withstand movements caused by heavy trucks entering and exiting the weighbridge.

The neutral axis on a truck scale is the point where no compression or tension occurs when a vehicle is on the weighbridge. In a concrete deck truck scale, this represents the point where concrete shifts from expected compression to damaging tension.

The six-inch-thick concrete deck of a SURVIVOR OTR sits above the weighbridge’s neutral axis. It is supported by a six-inch steel deck substructure incorporating galvanized steel sheets and I-beams, which increases strength throughout each module.

Competitor Designs

Many competitive weighbridges try to compensate for lighter steel or a lack of steel components by pouring a 9, 10, or 12-inch concrete deck, often extending below the neutral axis. This can result in dangerous concrete bending, which can cause surface cracks after just a short period of use.

Uncompromising SURVIVOR Strength

Selecting a steel deck truck scale means choosing a long-lasting, quick-to-install scale. The SURVIVOR OTR steel deck is designed to reduce downtime by simplifying installation and maintenance.

Reliable Steel Deck Design
SURVIVOR scales incorporate more longitudinal beams than other manufacturers to better support the weighbridge and ensure structural stress remains below fatigue limits during deflection. This design supports vehicle tires across the entire weighbridge deck.

Competitor Designs

Most other manufacturers use fewer I-beams or bent-channel beams to reduce the initial scale cost. However, these designs reduce structural integrity, causing greater deflection—shortening the lifespan of the weighbridge. Additionally, some designs require top and bottom deck plates, trapping corrosion-causing moisture inside the weighbridge.

Proven the Toughest Truck Scale Made, Any Way You Look at It

The SURVIVOR SR Series side rail truck scale offers superior strength and longevity proven by the SURVIVOR brand. With design elements that outperform competitor brands, a SURVIVOR SR truck scale offers the best total cost of ownership in the industry.

SURVIVOR SR stands up to constant heavy loading, with more wide-flange I-beams integrated throughout the weighbridge than other leading brands, and massive, wide-flange I-beams adding rigidity to each side of the weighbridge and acting as side guides for safe truck loading.
