The "weight" of the cloth is determined by taking 1 yard of the cloth at DOUBLE width (54" to 60") and weighing it.
After it's made into a kilt, you can't do that though. 
Take it to your closest kiltmaker and let them feel it. They should know whether it's 13 or 16 oz (and possibly what mill did the weaving).
