Bending Moments in a Beam Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-NGSP-11393
Students apply loads to hangers suspended along the beam, held between two supports.
One support allows rotational movement only, acting as a pinned support.
The other support allows translational movement, acting as roller support.
A load cell at the cut at mid-span of the beam measures the bending moment due to the load.
The beam has a central span with an overhanging end, so that students can create both positive and negative bending moments.
Each support includes pointers that work with the scale on the platform for accurate positioning.
This product includes a uniformly distributed load (UDL) that may be applied across the span of the beam for comparison of results with a single point load.
The load cell connects to the USB interface hub of the Structures platform for computer display and data acquisition.
Students use textbook equations to predict the bending moments due to the load, comparing them with measured results, and learn how to create the infl uence line and bending moment diagrams.
