TruckScience and NTEA
TruckScience partnered with NTEA in 2019, to offer our Axle Weight Calculator to NTEA members at a discounted subscription rate. Now, over 300 NTEA members use the tool.
On top of what NTEA’s basic Vehicle Centre of Gravity and Axle Weight Calculator offers, TruckScience comes with a library of pre-populated chassis, body & equipment specifications and drawings. It validates compliance with regulations for all US states and Canadian provinces, and includes features such as payload optimisation, colour-coded compliance indicators and drag-and-drop design.
