N.D. Admin. Code 69-10-02-06
Motor truck, motor truck dump, railway track, and livestock scales, other than fixed pitless scales, regardless of capacity, must have a clearance of not less than four feet [12.19 decimeters] from the finished floorline of the scale pit to the bottom of the "I" beam of the scale bridge. A five-eighths-inch [15.88-millimeter] clearance must be provided between the live deck and the pit coping. A "crushing strip" or "rock guard" must be installed in the event a concrete deck is installed on a scale; wood decks must be undercut around deck to prevent foreign material from lodging between deck and coping. Scale pits must be kept reasonably clean and dry at all times, and adequate drainage must be provided. Convenient entrances to the scale pit must be provided for the purpose of inspecting and cleaning.
