Combined Shear Force and Bending Moment apparatus
- To be part of a range of experiments designed to both demonstrate and experimentally confirm basic engineering principles
- To observe the action of shear force
and bending moment at a section in a beam and to compare the measured
and theoretical values
- To comprehend the action of shear and moment of resistance in a beam
- To consist of 2 simple supports; a
rigid aluminium alloy beam cut into two unequal lengths, with a
frictionless hinge at the joint which permits minimal vertical movement,
whilst allowing bending
- Analogue spring balance measures direct force at the ‘cut’ section
- Moment lever arm mechanism allows bending moment to be calculated
- Multiple load positions achievable
- To be bench top mounted
- Set of slotted weights included
