Deflection Of Beams And Cantilevers

Test beams fit onto the backboard using a rigid clamp and knife-edge supports. Students apply loads at any position using hangers holding various masses. The experiment hardware consists of a backboard that fixes to the Multi Structures Test Frame.
The indicator measures beam deflection. Scales on the backboard show the position of the indicator, the loads and supports. Mounted on a trammel, a digital deflection indicator traverses the beam.
