Cross Beam Numbering
Cross beams are marked with numbers 5, 6, or 7 on the web near the drain tube.
Number 5 cross beams attach on the ends of a scale section. The welded plate
and angle extension face to the end of the section. The headed anchor rods face
inward where they will be encased in the concrete deck.
Number 6 cross beams are set adjacent to a load cell mount. Two extra 3/8"
threaded studs near each end of #6 beams hold short support bars over the load
cell area to support the corrugated metal there when the deck is poured. Position
#6 beams so the extra end studs are over the load cell mount.
Number 7 cross beams make up the rest of the beams in the middle area of each module. Short modules may have
only one or two #7 cross beams, while longer modules may have four or more. The #7 beams are similar to #6
beams, but don’t have the extra 3/8" threaded studs near their ends. Any #7 beam can be reversed end-for-end so
drain tubes can be staggered from side to side for even drainage from the deck.
