STEELYARD

Picture of Steelyard

A steelyard is a portable balance consisting of a pivoted bar with two unequal arms. The load to be weighed is suspended from the shorter arm and the bar is returned to the horizontal by adding weights to the longer arm, or moving a counterbalance along the longer, graduated arm.
