Continuous and Indeterminate Beams

Continuous and Indeterminate Beams

•    A precision indicator on a slide can be easily positioned to measure beam deflections.
•    Two additional supports help complete the experiments.
•    The first experiments use two simple supports and a ‘rigid’ and heavy beam to examine statically determinate systems.
•    Students learn basic principles such as moments, the principle of superposition, uniformly distributed loads and the
•    Students use a light and ‘flexible’ beam.
•    All supports and the indicator slide have pointers that work with the scale and the platform for accurate position.
•    One allows measurement of the support fixing moment, the other ‘universal support’ works as simple support, a clamped support and a sinking knife edge support.
•    The second set of experiments relate to more advanced beam structures that are statically indeterminate, or involve a measureable beam deflection.
