Part 2: Bending moment varies at the cut position of the beam for various loading condition.
I. The Digital Force Display meter reads zero with no load was checked.
II. The beam was carefully loaded with the hangers in any positions and loads.
III. The force reading was converted into bending moment (Nm) using: Bending moment at a cut ( Nm) = Displayed Force x
0.125.
IV. The support reaction (RA and RB) and the theoretical bending moment at the cut was calculated.
C) DEFLECTION
• THEORY
• PROCEDURE
I. The movable knife-edged supports 400mm is placed apart from each other (point A and point B).
II. The beam is placed on the support.
III. The hanger and the digital dial test indicator are placed at the mid span (point C).
IV. The reading of the digital dial is set to zero.
V. Incremental load is applied and the deflection of the increment is recorded in the table.
VI. The test using span of 300mm and 500mm are repeated.
