Abstract
This paper introduces a proposed design for the first Serial-type Build-Up System (S-BUS). The work includes the design and implementation of two S-BUS prototypes, the metrological characteristics of the prototypes were evaluated. The evaluation results prove the validity of the system practically. The paper also discusses the key differences between the Parallel Build-Up System (P-BUS) and the S-BUS, and what makes it important to study the S-BUS concept.

All force measuring instruments take their traceability from force standard machines
The comparator type force standard machines which use a BUS as a reference are considered the optimum solution for traceability issue at high force level
“Force traceability within the meganewton range” under designation EMRP SIB63 [9], the main objective of this project is to extend the traceability of force measurements up to 50 MN and to give users new procedures and technical guidelines on the use of high force measurement devices [10]
Summary
All force measuring instruments take their traceability from force standard machines. The Deadweight Force Standard Machines (D-FSM) are the most precise machines for force generation but these types of machines have limited capacities due to their high manufacturing cost their huge size at high capacity [1]. The force amplification machines replace the deadweight machines at higher force ranges, these machines still have problems such as manufacturing cost and complex technology requirements [2]. The comparator type force standard machines which use a BUS as a reference are considered the optimum solution for traceability issue at high force level (meganewton range). The calibration is carried out by comparing the response of the force measuring unit under calibration with the response of the standard one (BUS) [3].
