An industrial pallet/scale including a platform for supporting a load, having at least three load sensors positioned between and in mechanical communication with the platform and ground. The platform is free of a sheer plate assembly in order to minimize weight of the platform. Each load sensor provides weight data responsive to a downward force relayed from the platform. A display unit in electrical communication with the at least three load cells displays text in response to the weight data of each load cell. The industrial pallet/scale optionally includes load sensors having protection means for protecting the load cells. The protection means functions as a support for the platform, which bears the load of the platform in a protective position. The protection means prevents a pressure member of the load cell from contacting the ground. In a weighing position, the pressure member is coupled directly to the ground, such that the load cell of the load sensor bears the load of the platform.
