Abstract
An adjustable weighing scale includes first and second scale sections deployable in a full-width configuration and an extended-width configuration. A connecting member extends between the scale sections. Load sensing apparatuses are mounted on the scale sections and output signals related to a portion of the full weight of an associated object on the scale. An output device receives the signals and communicates the full weight sensed by the scale in appropriate units.
