Center of Balance (CB) Calculator –This app provides users a tool to expeditiously calculate the center of balance for equipment with up to 5 axles and a Pallet Train with up to 10 boxes. The user begins by selecting the number of axles they want to figure out the center of balance for, and a representation of those axles are shown on the screen. The user then annotates the distance from front end (FFE) for each axle and the axle’s weight and the text box where the user inputs data will change from red to green when the data is correct. The user repeats the process for each axle and if all information is entered correctly, the app displays the center of balance for the user. If the data is incorrect, the center of balance will not display. Additionally, the app provides the user with a “Form view” where the numerical calculations are displayed. This is a great benefit that helps members ensure they are annotating the data correctly. After the user is complete with the vehicle or pallet train, they can either start a new vehicle, or quit the application.
