Weight control
Acts, claims, grain weighing
Details
Weighing
Truck scales full/empty or elevator scales; the document is a stamped weighbill.
Discrepancies
Allowed scale error ~0.1–0.2%; excess — grounds for a claim or reweighing.
Act
A discrepancy act is drawn on-site with driver and lab tech; a photo of the weighbridge display is evidence.
Claim
Deadline — per contract (usually 3 days); attach the weighbill, analysis, waybills to the act; court without an act is weak.
Weight control is trader money: a 0.5% 'shortload' on 100t is 500kg of grain. Every truck is weighed, every discrepancy — an act on delivery day.
