2. 2 Presentation plan  Introduction : Static enforcement of overloading  Description of the WIM project  Organization – Technicals means  Budget  Participation of the vendors

3. 3 Static enforcement of overloading : Situation in France Yearly static controls

4. 4 Static enforcement of overloading : Drawbacks and advantages  Need human resources (weighing officers, policemen...)  Need a static weighing area  Need static scales (risk of vandalism...)  Capacity to control only a small percentage of the truck traffic flow  Increase of the truck traffic flow and the average level of truck overloading → not efficient → but static weighing or low speed WIM are the ONLY devices legally approved for weight enforcement (by OIML recommandation)

5. 5 Description of the WIM Project  4 years project : 2013-16  IFSTTAR/ CETE Est and Ouest  Objective: Implementation of HS-WIM for direct enforcement of overloading  2 phases :  Phase 1 (2013-14): feasibility study for OIML type approval of an HS-WIM system  Phase 2 (2015-16): construction and test of a prototype

6. 6 Organization WP1: Feasibility of OIML type approval WP4: Bridge WIM WP3 : MS-WIM Transv WP : On site test WP2 : Interaction sensor/pavement WP5 : Expert study

7. 7 Technical mean: Accelerated Pavement Testing Facility

8. 8 Budget  First phase (2013-14): 777 k€  Consumables, etc.: 177 k€  Staff: 600 k€ (50 MM)  Second phase (2015-16): 728 k€  Consumables, etc.: 150 k€  Staff: 578 k€ (48 MM)

9. 9 Participation of Vendors  Welcome in this project  to take part in the experimentations  to contribute to and benefit of the R&D effort  to develop market solutions and products  IFSTTAR will issue a document describing the conditions of participation to this project (participation contract) + organise meetings Contact persons: louis-marie.cottineau@ifsttar.fr bernard.jacob @ifsttar.fr
