    Default Load Balancing Software

    Heres a program that I found useful today that legalizes, or at leaste comes very close to legalizing your load, after of course you scale and have to go for a re weigh.

    I have been a longtime user of DDL and have tried the load part of the program. Its good if you know what each pallet weighs, but knowing what each pallet weighs, do the math in your head. I thought it was a waste of time, and did it better on my own! This is my opinion of coarse!!

    Default Amusing

    Uglymutt,
    That's what happens when schools don't teach arithmetic amd mathematics only with the use of a calculator. There's at least a generation of people now who have no clue how to estimate or do computations in their head.
    I like to calculate in my head my grocery bill, as a clerk scans my purchases, to come with $.50 of the total and having it in my hand to pay. Yeah, I know, I need a life. BOL

    Default To balance the load between the drives & trailer tandems

    Take the weight on the trailer tandems and subtract the weight on the drive tandems. Divide that by 500. The answer tells you how many holes to increase the trailer wheelbase. If the answer is a negative number [the drive tandems are heavier than the trailer tandems] slide the trailer tandems to shorten the trailer wheelbase.
