State whether a reported value is calculated or measured and identify the corresponding configuration. A bare tube weight should not silently become the mass basis for a fully equipped member.<\/p><h2>Locate the reference<\/h2><p>Use a defined end, axis or assembly coordinate system to express a required balance or centre-of-gravity location. Include adjustable items and their relevant positions. Two assemblies can have similar total mass yet place that mass differently relative to their supports.<\/p><h2>Connect the record to the use case<\/h2><p>Explain the intended installation and the condition being assessed. An engineering review may need the position of the applied loads as well as the mass record. Keep that setup with a sample result instead of presenting \u201clightweight\u201d as a complete balance requirement.
