Deflection of Frame
Response within 1 business day · Global logistics · Tender-ready docs
Horizontal reactions are monitored using the integral load cell within the track plate and its output fed into the Interface Deflection of Frame and sway is measured using the dial gauges supplied.
A 'rectangular' Portal frame and an 'S' frame made from rectangular solid steel section are provided with a range of fixed or pinned ends and simple supports to enable each frame to be set up in the Universal Frame and Stand and loaded horizontally and vertically.
Load hangers, calibrated weights, cords and pulleys are provided to apply vertical and/or horizontal loading to the frames. One end of the portal frame pivots on a knife edge, while the other end is free to move horizontally on a track plate against a load cell.
Experimental Capabilities:
Study the load, horizontal reactions, deflections, sway in portal frames
Comparison of experimental results with theoretical values derived using Castigliano's theorem and numerical analysis by Simpson's rule.
