Abstract
In this paper, the wheel-load meter, which is tentatively made by the author and its test measurements on a street in Kobe City are described. The meter shows satisfactory function for easy measurements of wheel-load under the operational conditions of vehicles in comparatively congested traffic. Basing on both of the results obtained and the data measured in the past by another observers, the distribution characteristics of wheel-loads are discussed. Moreover, the design load of highway structures subjecting to the wheel-loads is discussed in brief.
