Abstract
A load monitoring system for a mobile work platform includes a load cell (12) having at least one strain gauge (16) and a sensing circuit (14) connected to receive a strain signal from the strain gauge. The sensing circuit (14) includes a first sensing device (24) for sensing the strain in the strain gauge (16), and a second sensing device (26) for sensing a negative shift in the strain signal.
