1. A computing device, comprising:
- a rail mount chassis comprising a pressure sensor; and
a processor programmed to;
monitor the pressure sensor to obtain pressure sensor data;
estimate a load exerted on a rail of the rail mount chassis using the obtained pressure sensor data;
make a determination that the load exerted on the rail exceeds a load rating of the rail; and
in response to the determination, notify a user that the rail may be damaged.

Abstract
A computing device includes a rail mount chassis and a processor. The rail mount chassis includes a pressure sensor. The processor monitors the pressure sensor to obtain pressure sensor data; estimates a load exerted on a rail of the rail mount chassis using the obtained pressure sensor data; makes a determination that the load exerted on the rail exceeds a load rating of the rail; and in response to the determination, notifies a user that the rail may be damaged.
