How to set shipping cost based on weight?

Hello there,

I am new to Zen Cart. I imported the CSV file from my supplier successfully into Zen Cart.
My supplier also sent me a file containing the shipping cost per weight.

The list looks something like this:

Max weight/cost
0.1Kg / 4.99
0.2Kg / 5.99
0.5Kg / 6.99
1.0Kg / 7.99
3.0Kg / 9.99
5.0Kg / 12.99
10 Kg / 19.99

etc. (this is just an example).

How would I apply that list into zen cart? Is there a configuration option in the admin panel for that already? Or would I need to install an addon?

Thanks

KMeier

Edit: sorry I forgot to mention that we offer free shipping on all of our items. Meaning the actually shipping cost should be added to the items price and not separately as shipping.
