Development of Rural Road Bridge Weigh-in-Motion System to Assess Weight and Configuration of Farm-to-Market Vehicles
The Institute for Transportation at Iowa State University has released a report that assesses the impact of farm-to-market vehicles and other implements of husbandry (IoH) on rural bridges. IoH vehicles usually travel rural roads with heavy loads, especially during harvest. This report seeks to provide accurate information of IoH weights on low-volume roads in order to plan for the repair and replacement of rural structures and roadways.
