Unsymmetrical Bending And Shear Centre Apparatus

Product Description

Description of Unsymmetrical Bending And Shear Centre Apparatus Experiment investigating the Unsymmetrical Bending And Shear Centre Apparatus of different sectioned beams when the loading is not in the plane of a principal axis. A U section, L section and rectangular beam cantilever is horizontally supported within a rotating clamp which fits in a substantial frame attached to the Universal Frame and Stand The rotating clamp enables the loading and deflection planes to be set relative to the cross section axes. A protractor scale is fitted to the substantial block and a pointer on the specimen references against this scale. Experimental Capabilities of Unsymmetrical Bending And Shear Centre Apparatus Study of the horizontal and vertical deflection of asymmetrical cantilevers when the plane of loading does not coincide with a principle axis of the section|Study of the horizontal deflection of asymmetrical cantilevers under various loadingsVerification of the theory of unsymmetrical bendingDetermination of the neutral axis in an angle sectionDetermination of the Shear Centre in U channel section only Specification of Unsymmetrical Bending And Shear Centre Apparatus Cantilevered specimens: U; L and rectangularAngle of principle axes can be variedCantilever test length 600mmDial gauges to accurately measure the deflection of the free end of the test specimen during loadingProtractor attachedShear Centre analysis for U specimen only.Specimen loading transmitted through hanger and calibrated test weightsMust be used with universal Frame and StandComprehensive instruction manual provided
