This document describes procedures for determining weight distribution and ground pressure of tracked vehicles. Weight distribution influences the life of suspension components and affects vehicle mobility and transportability. Ground pressure also provides an indication of vehicle flotation which affects mobility when traversing soft terrain. Keywords: Traversing soft terrain; Vehicle platform scale method; Wheel platform scale method.
