Abstract
A method of determining the number of a plurality of pipe joints that can be shipped on a transportation means without exceeding a predetermined weight is set forth. The method employs a bar code reader coupled to a computer and involves initially determining the weight of each pipe joint. After this determination, a bar code label, which includes the weight of the pipe joint, is affixed to the pipe joint. The predetermined weight for the transportation means is then entered in the computer and the bar code for each pipe is scanned as it is placed on the transportation means. The computer calculates the running total of the weight of the pipe joints which have been scanned and compares that calculated weight to the predetermined weight. When the predetermined weight for the transportation means has been exceeded, the operator is notified.
