Simple Suspension Bridge
This equipment allows measurement of cable tension resulting from uniform and non-uniform distributed and point loads on the rigid deck. It is to be used with ST300 Universal Structural Frame (separately supplied).
A light metal alloy with stiffening ribs is carried by two rows of nine equally spaced hangers, one on each side. Each row of hangers has a flexible steel cable support whose length simulates a parabolic curve. Each end of the cable passes over a pulley to a load hanger. Special loads are provided to simulate uniform distribution load and movable point load.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Demonstration of the characteristics of a simple suspension bridge
- Examination of the relationship between applied loads and the suspension cable tension
- Observation of the stability of the structure
- Comparison of behavior to simplified cable theory

Structures and AccessoriesDeflection of Beams and Cantilevers
The equipment is used for measurement of deflections and slopes of a beam under bending or and compare with values calculated by differential equation. It is to be used with ST300 Universal Structural Frame (separately supplied).
The beam rest on two built-in/knife edge supports. Load hangers are used for point loads and a number of weights are used for uniform load. Deflections and slopes are measured by dial indicators.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Beam deflections
- Beam bending formula
- Shape of a deflected beam.

Structures and AccessoriesStrain and Stress in a Beam
The apparatus demonstrates the use of electrical resistance strain gauge in measuring strain of material under stress. It is to be used with ST300 Universal Structural Frame or ST305 Universal Base Frame (separately supplied).
A beam is simply supported at both ends. Strain gauge(s) are fixed at different locations of the beam specimen. Each gauge is wired to form a full bridge with temperature compensation and zero adjustment. Load is applied by a load hanger and weights. Strain(s) are measured by a strain indicator.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS- Examination of the relationship between stress and strain
- Finding the neutral axis
- The effect of beam cross-section to the second moment of area and neutral axis
