Odhav GIDC weighbridges for steel stockists and fabricators.
Odhav GIDC in east Ahmedabad is a working estate of engineering shops, fabricators, machine-part makers and steel stockists. Steel here is bought and sold by the tonne, so the weighbridge slip often settles the gap between book weight and actual weight.
For an Odhav GIDC steel stockist, a 60 MT weighbridge (truck scale) with an 18 m deck weighs a full bar or pipe trailer in one go; fabrication and machining units usually need 30–40 MT on a 9–12 m deck. Symphony builds it in Ahmedabad, with Legal Metrology stamping support.
Steel sold on actual weight needs a stamped slip.
- Actual weight, settledA stamped Class III (OIML R76) weighbridge settles the gap between invoice weight and actual weight for every steel lot.
- Decks for long bars and pipesAn 18 m deck holds a full TMT or pipe trailer, with every axle on the platform together.
- Room-saving foundationsOn an older plot with little set-back from the estate road, a pit-type deck at road level avoids the approach ramps a pit-less deck needs.
Who needs one in Odhav GIDC: Engineering and fabrication shops, machining and casting job-work units, steel stockists and traders of TMT bars, pipes and structural sections, plastics and packaging, and small food units in the Odhav, Rakhial and Vastral belt.
Also called a dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा), truck scale or weigh bridge. We also serve Odhav, Rakhial, Vastral, Amraiwadi.
Bars, pipes and job-work.
Steel stockists and traders
Bars, pipes and sections come in on mill invoices at theoretical weight and go out to buyers, often on actual weight. Every difference is money.
Our setup: A 60 MT, 18 m deck stamped for trade, with SMFW slips that carry the lot or invoice number, so each sale matches its weighment.
Fabrication shops
Sheets and sections come in, fabricated structures go out, and the job is often billed by weight.
Our setup: A 40 MT, 12 m pit-less deck, so every dispatch has a weighment slip to back a per-kg bill.
Machining and casting job-work
Castings and machined parts move between units for job work, and the returned weight must reconcile with what was sent.
Our setup: A 30 MT, 9 m pit-less deck with SMFW records, so outgoing and returning job-work loads are matched.

Book weight or actual weight? The weighbridge decides.
Steel trade runs on two numbers: the theoretical (section) weight on the mill invoice and the actual weight on the weighbridge. When bars, pipes or plates are sold on actual weight, a stamped Class III weighbridge settles the difference on the spot. Long TMT bars and pipes arrive on trailers, so the deck must hold every axle at once. Some older Odhav plots are compact, with little set-back from the estate road; there a pit-type deck at road level avoids approach ramps, provided the pit has a drain and sump.
