ST 320 EQUILIBRIUM OF A BEAM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This equipment is used for measurement of support reactions of a simple beam or cantilever in equilibrium under different loads. It is to be used with ST305 Universal Base Frame or ST300 Universal Structural Frame (separately supplied).
The beam is supported by two weighing machines with knife edges fixed on to the pan. Load hanger with weights are hung on the beam between the two supports. In the case of a cantilever, a spring balance and a weighing machine are used.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
- Principle of Moments.
- Reactions for a point load along a beam.
