To measure the loaded weight of a dump truck, accurately and
inexpensively. In a dump truck comprising a set of equalizer bars
respectively provided rotatably on the left and right-hand sides of a
vehicle body; first vehicle wheels supported respectively by way of first
suspension devices on one side of each equalizer bar; second vehicle
wheels supported respectively by way of second suspension devices on the
other side of each equalizer bar; and third vehicle wheels provided
respectively on the left and right-hand sides of the vehicle body
separately from the equalizer bars, and being supported respectively by
way of third suspension devices; a first load applied to the second
suspension device is detected; a second load applied to the third
suspension device is detected; the angle of inclination of the vehicle
body is detected; and a loaded weight is calculated on the basis of the
first and second loads, and the angle of inclination.
