In addition to scales, we offer cement services for scale foundations and bases.
We have been forming and pouring foundations since the inception of our business in 1929. This is an often overlooked but extremely important part of being a true turnkey solution provider for truck and rail scales.
Your foundation is one of the most important components of your scale. A properly formed, poured, and finished foundation is essential to provide a scale that can endure the abuses of heavy traffic.

Why choose Brechbuhler for industrial services
A scale is only as reliable as the foundation and site work underneath it. Brechbuhler handles the walls, slabs, approaches, and light excavation that go into a proper scale installation, using our own equipment and employees rather than a subcontractor.
One company, start to finish
Because our own crews handle the civil work, scale installation, and calibration, there is a single point of accountability for the entire project instead of coordinating between multiple contractors.
Built to scale-industry standards
Foundations, slabs, and approaches are built to the tolerances and specifications a scale system actually needs, reducing the risk of settling, misalignment, or drainage problems down the road.
Our own equipment and crews
All work is performed with Brechbuhler's own equipment and employees, who share the same commitment to quality and customer satisfaction as the rest of the company.
