SV203 - Deflection of Trusses

The experiment kit consists of 25 truss members of various lengths allow the construction of 3 5-bay cantilever truss frameworks, with one framework having a 30° top member inclination. The frames mount on two side brackets mounted from the left vertical edge of the universal frame. One bracket has a pivoting support whilst the other acts as a pivoting and rolling support. Forces can be applied to any truss hub using the load cell assembly. The strain and force exerted in each member is measured using a strain gauge attached to each truss member. The signals from each member strain gauge and load cell are fed through the strain amplifier into the computer interface. (SV-HMI or armBUS-SV supplied separately).
