Hi Matthias,
I would recommend checking the following documents online:
https://www.understandingsociety.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/working-papers/2010-05.pdf
https://www.understandingsociety.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/working-papers/2024-01.pdf
and an older version of our user guide that includes a more technical description of weight in UKHLS (attached).
If the above doesn’t answer all your questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Best wishes,
Piotr Marzec
