Bending Moment in a Frame
This equipment allows measurement of strain hence bending moment along the length of the vertical and horizontal members of a rectangular portal frame. It is to be used with ST300 Universal Structural Frame (separately supplied).
Strain gauges are fixed at equal distance along the frame members, 8 on the horizontal member and 4 on each vertical member. Both vertical legs of the frame can be clamped to ST300 Universal Structural Frame. Loads can be applied on the horizontal and/or vertical members and/or removable moment arm of the frame. Strains on the frame can be measured by the strain indicator. Bending moment at each strain gauge can be calculated from the strain and compared with the theoretical value.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Relationship between measured strain and bending moment.
- Elastic bending of portal frames and linear relationship between the bending moments in the frame and the load.
- Bending moments for internal and external moments on vertical members
- Comparison of ideal and non-ideal structures

Structures and AccessoriesUniversal Base Frame
This is a bench top base frame made from 30 x 30 mm aluminum profile with stainless steel support and adjustable footings. The base is a twin member on which optional structural models and accessories are attached. This frame is more economical than ST300 Universal Structural Frame, and is intended to replace ST300 for many experiments in structural mechanics where underhung and side hung are not required.

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.
