Abstract:

he objective of this project was to study the use and implementation of an overload truck screening system for bridge structures. This screening system combines two advanced technologies, namely a weigh-in-motion (WIM) system and a bridge strain sensing system, to detect the passage of overload trucks at highway speeds. A review of literature on WIM systems as well as a survey of state departments of transportation (DOTs) regarding their experiences with both WIM and bridge instrumentation were conducted.
