  • Abstract:
    This paper describes the measurement services, the instrumentation and procedures available for force metrology at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA. The uncertainty in the forces realized over a range of 44 N to 53 MN is reviewed. The maintenance and the uncertainty of the voltage ratio indicating system for strain gage load cells are discussed.
